Generate HTML Report with Findbugs about spotbugs-maven-plugin HOT 11 CLOSED

We would like to generate the HTML report as part of the Maven verify phase, so that developers have access to it when a Jenkins build fails due to too many errors. How do we achieve this? We do not use mvn site in our CI/CD pipeline because it takes too long to complete.

+1 for the ability to generate HTML reports out of the box.

+1

This is actually pretty important from a Project Management perspective. We have departments that require us to submit a written report of the analysis.

from spotbugs-maven-plugin.

@hazendaz yes you are correct. mvn site does it

@cziesman How do you plan to make the site html pages available during that run? Generally you just have the jenkins console output available to the users. There as with many other plugins, it will show you where the issues are when using 'spotbugs:check'.

Developers on my regularly ask how to check static analysis locally on their development machines. If the plugin can generate html output, they will be able to open those pages with a browser. This is faster for them than waiting for a Jenkins build to complete

Can we now generate HTML report or feature is still not released for end users? If yes, please share the configuration needed.
