Findbugs can be customized with a exclude filter to exclude from checking issues that produce a high number of false positives.
For the rest of "false positives" @suppresswarnings annotation can be used. I suggest Understanding the issue Findbugs highlights before suppressing it, I did see devs being lazy and causing production outages... There is no good reason for not running Findbugs as part of the build. cheers. --z On Jul 30, 2012, at 10:53 AM, Brandon Williams <dri...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Jul 30, 2012 at 9:52 AM, Jonathan Ellis <jbel...@gmail.com> wrote: >> Is Jenkins smart enough to be able to say, "I know we had X findbugs >> warnings previously, which are known to be false positives, but now >> there are X+1" ? > > In my experience, jenkins hasn't even been smart enough to build > cassandra in a couple of years. > > -Brandon
