How to configure Maven to run a SonarQube project analysis with two different quality profiles?

Question

We run SonarQube analyses for our Java projects via Maven. Maven somehow does this automagically; all we did was add the sonar-maven-plugin to our pom.xml

Answer 1

Try to configure two executions of your plugin. Something like this:

    org.codehaus.mojo
    sonar-maven-plugin
    
        
            s1
            verify
            
                sonar
            
            
                MyQualityProfile1
            
        
        
            s2
            install
            
                sonar
            
            
                MyQualityProfile2
            
        
    

This will start two executions of sonar in phases verify and install, each with another sonar.branch value. In Sonar you can then configure the required quality profiles after the first analysis.
