CxSAST gives you the capability to branch or duplicate an existing project and have the new project inherit all of the issues, comments and dispositions from the source project. Once the project has been branched or duplicated, you can treat it as a separate project with separate issues to manage. Projects are duplicated or branched as follows:
...
- Preset
- Team
- Exclusions
- Scheduling
- Advanced Actions (email notifications on pre-scan, post-scan and scan failure).
Branch Project - similar similar to copy copying a project, except that it copies the following set of properties:
- Preset
- Team
- Last scan from the source project with all results and remarks.
