The following sections explain how you install the report generator, how you configure it, and how you generate a report.
The following procedure assumes that someone has already used Coverity Analysis to analyze your code base and commited the resulting defect data to Coverity Connect. For guidance with this process, see Coverity Analysis User and Administrator Guide.
The workflow is:
- Install the report generator using the Coverity Reports installer.
- Configure the report generator. The structure of the configuration file is explained in Coverity Integrity Report configuration file.
- Generate a report.
Note: If the
--output option isn’t used, then the report is saved in the
directory the user calls the command from.
