SonarCloud Configuration Validation for TheCreditPros¶

Overview¶

This guide provides comprehensive SonarCloud configuration validation and standardization across all TheCreditPros repositories. Since your repositories already have SonarCloud integrated with AI Code Fix enabled, this validation ensures consistency and adherence to credit repair industry best practices.

🎯 Target Repositories¶

customer-frontend-portal - React frontend
portal2-refactor - Backend refactoring
portal2-admin-refactor - Admin portal

🚀 Quick Start¶

1. Generate Configuration Templates¶

# Generate standardized SonarCloud configurations
./ai-sdlc sonar-templates

# This creates:
# - sonarcloud-templates/sonar-project.properties
# - sonarcloud-templates/sonarcloud-workflow.yml
# - sonarcloud-templates/package-scripts-template.json

2. Validate Existing Configurations¶

# Set your SonarCloud token
export SONAR_TOKEN=your_sonarcloud_token
export GITHUB_TOKEN=your_github_token  # Optional, for AI Code Fix validation

# Validate all TheCreditPros repositories
./ai-sdlc sonar-validate

# Generates detailed report: sonarcloud-validation-report.json

Package.json Test Configuration¶

{
  "scripts": {
    "test:coverage": "vitest --coverage",
    "sonar": "sonar-scanner"
  },
  "vitest": {
    "coverage": {
      "provider": "v8",
      "reporter": ["text", "lcov", "html"],
      "exclude": [
        "node_modules/",
        "**/*.test.{js,jsx,ts,tsx}",

        "lines": 80,
        "statements": 80
      }
    }
  }
}

📈 Compliance Scoring¶

The validation script provides a comprehensive compliance score (0-100%) based on:

Quality Gate Configuration (20%): Proper quality gate setup
Metrics Compliance (30%): Coverage, duplication, ratings
Security Rules (25%): Vulnerability detection, credential scanning
AI Code Fix (15%): GitHub Actions integration
Credit Repair Compliance (10%): Industry-specific rules

Scoring Thresholds¶

90-100%: 🌟 Excellent - Industry best practices
80-89%: ✅ Compliant - Meets requirements
60-79%: ⚠️ Needs Improvement - Action required
0-59%: ❌ Non-Compliant - Immediate attention needed

🚨 Common Issues & Fixes¶

Quality Gate Not Configured¶

Issue: Default quality gate or none configured Fix:

# Apply "Sonar way" quality gate in SonarCloud UI
# or configure in sonar-project.properties:
sonar.qualitygate.wait=true

Low Code Coverage¶

Issue: Coverage below 80% threshold Fix:

# Add test scripts to package.json
npm run test:coverage

# Exclude non-testable files in sonar-project.properties
sonar.coverage.exclusions=**/*.min.js,**/vendor/**

AI Code Fix Not Enabled¶

Issue: No GitHub Actions workflow found Fix:

Copy sonarcloud-templates/sonarcloud-workflow.yml to .github/workflows/
Add SONAR_TOKEN to repository secrets
Enable AI Code Fix in SonarCloud project settings

Missing Security Rules¶

Issue: Credit repair compliance rules not active Fix:

Enable JavaScript/TypeScript security rules in SonarCloud
Activate vulnerability detection
Enable credential scanning rules
