Travis CI + Coverity scan with Gradle

I've successfully setup a project which uses Travis CI to for builds and tests. Now I'm trying to add Coverity Scan.

I created a branch called coverity_scan and set it be used for coverity builds. After I push a commit to this branch I can see in Travis CI build console that Coverity tool starts doing its job:

Coverity Scan analysis selected for branch coverity_scan.
Coverity Scan analysis authorized per quota.

...

Running Coverity Scan Analysis Tool...

The Travis build succeeds and in Coverity build-log.txt file I see this:

However after this finishes, I do not see any submitted builds or changes in projects Coverity dashboard. The project status stays on pending.

I've followed this guide and setup my .travis.yml file like this:

language: java
jdk:
  - oraclejdk8
before_script:
  - cd server
  - chmod +x gradlew
script:
  # Run tests when not on coverity branch.
  - if [ ${COVERITY_SCAN_BRANCH} != 1 ]; then
      ./gradlew check;
    fi
cache:
  directories:
  - ~/.gradle
after_success:
  # Upload coveralls when not on coverity branch.
  - if [ ${COVERITY_SCAN_BRANCH} != 1 ]; then
      ./gradlew cobertura coveralls;
    else
      cat cov-int/build-log.txt;
    fi
notifications:
  email:
    on_success: change
env:
  matrix:
    - TERM=dumb
  global:
    # COVERITY_SCAN_TOKEN
    - secure: "<TOKEN>"
before_install:
  - echo -n | openssl s_client -connect scan.coverity.com:443 | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' | sudo tee -a /etc/ssl/certs/ca-
addons:
  coverity_scan:
    project:
      name: "Edvinas01/chat-rooms"
      description: "Build submitted via Travis CI"
    notification_email: "<EMAIL>"
    build_command_prepend: "./gradlew clean"
    build_command: "./gradlew build"
branch_pattern: coverity_scan

Do I have to specify some additional configuration so that my Coverity builds get published?

Solution

  • Got some time and created a virtual machine with java and the coverity analysis tool. After pulling my project and running the tool I noticed this in the logs:

    [WARNING] No files were emitted. This may be due to a problem with your configuration
or because no files were actually compiled by your build command.

    After fiddling quite a bit and looking at other projects, I found out that this was due to Gradle version. My project was using 3.0 so I downgraded to 2.14.1 and it finally seems to be working.
