False positive on the "alt" image attribute when using Angular

[julien...@gmail.com]

Hi everyone,

I have a project hosted on SonarQube:

https://sonarqube.com/dashboard/?id=1054756

We just got a "B" grade because we have images that do not have the "alt" attribute, see for example:

https://sonarqube.com/issues#issues=AVn-m2ByaRqHwG08ClA7

In fact, we do have the "alt" attribute (if you look at the far right of the line), so this is a false positive. As we use Angular 2, our code is supposed to be "correct" HTML, but as you can see it's kind of unusual, so I guess the Sonar parser does not understand it correctly.

Can you confirm this is a false positive? In that case, could you open up a ticket and solve it? I'm available (as well as many people from the JHipster community, as we all want AAA grade) if you need help testing.

Cheers,

Julien

Hi Julien,

I confirm it is a false-positive, I created a ticket on the plugin side:

https://jira.sonarsource.com/browse/SONARWEB-56

I would recommend you to mark them as false positives to not have them to lower your AAA grade.

Cheers,
