SonarLint 2.2 for Visual Studio improves the connected mode
May 11, 2016Jean-Marc Prieur

Summary
SonarLint for Visual Studio 2.2 introduces several improvements: 1. Notifications for quality definition changes: A gold bar message appears in the Error list if the SonarQube project's quality profile has changed since the last sync, prompting a resync. 2. UI-based exclusion of projects from SonarQube analysis: Users can now exclude MSBuild projects or mark MSTest projects as test projects directly through the Visual Studio UI, simplifying configuration compared to editing project files. 3. Dedicated SonarLint tab in the Output window: Project binding feedback, including reasons for exclusion or test project status, is now logged in a dedicated SonarLint tab, improving visibility and debugging.
