| Coverity Scan is a service by which Black Duck provides the results of analysis |
| on open source coding projects to open source code developers that have |
| registered their products with Coverity Scan. |
| |
| This integration was only tested with scan.coverity.com and the tool |
| distribution available through this service. |
| |
| Generating Build Data Files |
| *************************** |
| |
| To use this integration, coverity tool distribution must be found in your :envvar:`PATH` environment and |
| :ref:`west build <west-building>` should be called with a ``-DZEPHYR_SCA_VARIANT=coverity`` |
| parameter, e.g. |
| |
| .. code-block:: shell |
| |
| west build -b qemu_cortex_m3 samples/hello_world -- -DZEPHYR_SCA_VARIANT=coverity |
| |
| |
| Results of the scan will be generated as :file:`build/sca/coverity`. |
| |
| You can also set :envvar:`COVERITY_OUTPUT_DIR` as the destination for multiple |
| and incremental scan results. |
