Reports for large systems provide an overwhelming amount of information. Most of the times a report containing the changes compared to a baseline is enough - like a newspaper versus a whole encyclopedia. From Sonargraph-Build version 9.13.0 onwards, an additional system diff HTML report is generated if a baseline XML report is specified via the parameter "baselineReportPath". The full and diff reports are inter-linked.
NOTE
This functionality is only available in the commercial version of Sonargraph.
The resulting diff report contains only the changes. The following screenshot shows the top part of a sample report:
The report is divided in sections equal to the tabs of the "System Diff" view in the Sonargraph application. If the sections contain changes, this is indicated by the prefix "(!)" in the top-left navigation section.
This feature has been introduced with the Sonargraph release 9.13 and we will continue improving the precision of the results
in upcoming releases. Feedback is always welcome and can be sent to <support@hello2morrow.com>

NOTE
As with every modification: Frequent and small changes are easier to review than big-bang refactorings.
