Setting up a Jenkins job to fail depending on the amount of priority issues

One of our tech support representatives, Richard Pinaroc, offers a Jenkins pipeline example on how to fail a job if the number of priority issues surpasses a certain threshold. This has also been published as a KB article https://softwaresupport.softwaregrp.com/doc/KM03660119.

his example is using Jenkins v2.229 and Fortify Jenkins plugin v20.1.32 on a Windows environment.

If a Jenkins job is using a pipeline script, create a stage condition to call fprutility to check if there is an X amount of critical|high issues and return an error code 1 (FAILED) or 0 (PASSED).

Here are examples using the fprutility to display any critical or high issues which includes any issues suppressed or removed.
eg
fprutility -information -includeSuppressed -includeRemoved -search -query "[fortify priority order]:critical" -project path\filename.fpr

fprutility -information -includeSuppressed -includeRemoved -search -query "[fortify priority order]:high" -project path\filename.fpr

The following pipeline calls a Windows batch fle passing the generated FPR as input to the fprutility.

eg
pipeline {

agent any

stages {
stage('Fortify clean') {
           steps{
               echo 'Cleaning'
               fortifyClean buildID: '${JOB_NAME}_${BUILD_NUMBER}'
           }
}
stage('Fortify Translate') {
           steps{
               echo 'Translating'
               fortifyTranslate buildID: '${JOB_NAME}_${BUILD_NUMBER}',
               projectScanType: fortifyJava(javaSrcFiles: 'C:\\Fortify_SCA_and_Apps_20.1.0\\Samples\\basic\\eightball\\EightBall.java', javaVersion: '1.8')
           }
       }
stage('Fortify Scan') {
           steps{
               echo 'Scanning'
               fortifyScan buildID: '${JOB_NAME}_${BUILD_NUMBER}', resultsFile: '${FPR}'
           }
}
stage('Check Criticals') {
           steps{
           bat 'C:\\test.bat "C:\\Jenkins\\workspace\\Jenkins_Pipeline_Example\\scan.fpr"'
           }
       }

        stage('Upload to SSC'){
            steps{
                fortifyUpload appName: 'EightBall', appVersion: '1.0', failureCriteria: '', filterSet: '', pollingInterval: '', resultsFile: '${FPR}'
            }
        }
   }
}

The example Windows batch script, eg test.bat, to return an exit code 1 (FAILED) if number of criticals found in FPR is greater than equal to 1.

@echo off

set NumIssues=

call fprutility -information -includeSuppressed -includeRemoved -search -query "[fortify priority order]:high" -project "%1" -f "C:\Jenkins\workspace\output.txt"

for /f "tokens=1" %%i in (C:\Jenkins\workspace\output.txt) do set NumIssues=%%i

if %NumIssues% GEQ 1 (
exit 1
) else (
exit 0
)

:end

Example of the pipeline console output which shows the stage and will not upload the FPR if the fprutilty check fails.
