Key training modules
Comprehensive, hands-on modules designed to take you from basics to advanced concepts
- Module 1: SonarQube Fundamentals (What + Why)
- Static code analysis, code quality validation, and security guidance
- Enterprise need for scanning: bugs, tech debt, maintainability
- Key concepts: Projects, Issues, Rules, Quality Profiles, Quality Gates
- Activity: categorize findings into bugs vs vulnerabilities vs code smells
- Module 2: SonarQube Setup (Quick Setup)
- Architecture overview (server, database usage, scanner role)
- Local setup with Docker and enterprise setup overview
- Project creation and access token generation
- Labs: run SonarQube in Docker, create project and token
- Module 3: Running Your First Scan (SonarScanner Basics)
- sonar-project.properties configuration
- Local scans and viewing results
- Labs: scan sample project, fix top issues, re-scan
- Module 4: Understanding Results (What to Fix First)
- Bugs, vulnerabilities, code smells, security hotspots
- Severity levels, effort estimates, and false positives
- Lab: triage results and build a fix plan
- Module 5: Quality Gates and Standards Enforcement
- Quality gates for new code vs overall code
- Common conditions: vulnerabilities, coverage, duplication, ratings
- Legacy baseline strategy
- Labs: configure a quality gate, force a gate failure, validate enforcement
- Module 6: CI Integration (GitHub Actions Recommended)
- Scan on pull requests and merge to main
- Fail pipeline when quality gate fails
- Labs: integrate SonarQube scan in GitHub Actions, enforce merge readiness blocking
- Module 7: Enterprise Adoption Best Practices
- Standardization with shared profiles and gates
- Reporting trends and governance as Definition of Done
- Scaling onboarding across repositories
- Workshop: define org SonarQube policy and rollout strategy
- Final Capstone
- Quality gate protected repository with CI scan integration and verified enforcement
