Unable To Export Results

Open Donwangugi opened this issue 10 years ago • 4 comments

Unless I know otherwise. It is not easy for me to export the results to someone else. I am a security researcher on a team with developers. I wanted to run this tool, prune the false positives and then export the results to the developers so that they could handle them.

What format would you like to export in? Would something like CSV do?

Why wouldn't the developers run the thing? They should know the code better and so have a better idea of whether a specific warning is a false positive.

Yes, I agree, that is a very reasonable argument.

In our scenario the developers who own the code I have discovered issues in do not use FindBugs. So I could tell them to install and run the tool but it would be easier and makes more sense if I could send them a report out.

I think XML or CSV makes sense.
