With more than 4000 open source projects now registered at Coverity Scan, we are committed to help the open source community find quality and security issues early in development. We would like to inform you that you can now nominate your favorite defect! Tell us which defects you are glad were found using Coverity Scan and get special gifts like a Samsung Gear 2 Smartwatch, Code Black Drone or Tile for iOS and Android. Gifts will be distributed every month based on defect nomination! We recently added new hardware resource and upgraded our Scan server to our latest 7.6 version, which includes great new features: * New security and quality checkers with version 7.6. * You can now setup automatic approval for viewing defects in read-only mode for everyone. * See charts showing defects outstanding vs. fixed over a period of time, and sort high impact defects by category. * Support for standard SSL port 443 instead of 8443. * Subscribe to email notifications for your entire open source project or for specific components or modules within your project. * You can now submit builds more frequently. * Please download the latest Coverity Build tool from https://scan.coverity.com/download * The old Coverity Build tool will still continue to work, but it may not be able to find some security and quality defects that could be found using our new and improved checkers as a part of 7.6 upgrade. * Important note for projects that uses automation or a script to submit build to Coverity Scan: The old URL to upload build on scan5.coverity.com is no longer supported. It is applicable to and used by some of the old projects on Coverity Scan. * Please sign-in to Coverity Scan to find the updated URL under automation section of Submit Build. * Finally, don't forget to nominate your favorite defects to receive special gifts like a Samsung Gear 2 Smartwatch, Code Black Drone or Tile for iOS and Android every month! Post your technical questions at https://communities.coverity.com/community/scan-(open-source)/content Please email us at scan-admin@coverity.com if you have any question or concerns, and we would be happy to help you.
