The main goal of the plugin is to integrate JIRA with your SonarQube instance and code quality metrics.
This is very important because not all the people access SonarQube to review their code quality data. With this plugin, we are providing all the information in JIRA, so that the users don't need to change their context to SonarQube.
Features at project level
You can browse your project code quality at anytime by using the project tab panel in your project sidebar. You will access the full SonarQube dashboard with all your summary and details:
Project Portfolio
SonarQube Issues Breakdown
Since 1.5 version you are able to see SonarQube issues directly in your project tab panel.
A new section has been added to your panel so that you can see all issues of the SonarQube resources linked through the connector.
Issues will be summarized if you have more than one resource key in your settings.
This way, as a manager, you can review your top issues inside your Jira project. All the information in the same place.
If you need issue details, we have provided a link to your SonarQube/SonarCloud instance.
