Issue severity
An issue severity is made up of a level from 1 through 10, plus a label such as Warning. Severities are displayed for detected issues in Klocwork Static Code Analysis and on the desktop. Each checker has a default severity.
The available severity levels and their default labels are as follows:
- 1 - Critical
- 2 - Error
- 3 - Warning
- 4 - Review
- 5 - Severity 5
- 6 - Severity 6
- 7 - Severity 7
- 8 - Severity 8
- 9 - Severity 9
- 10 - Severity 10
By default, checkers are assigned severities 1 through 4. Custom checkers are assigned severity 4 by default.
You can edit:
- the severity level for individual checkers
- the labels for each severity level
