False Positives

Bulwark aims to have as few false positives as possible. A great way to help improve the quality of Bulwark’s detections is to report and help fix them! You can report any accuracy issues on the Issues page.

Built-in testing capabilities are currently a feature on the Roadmap and intended to help test the accuracy of an entire ruleset. However individual plugins already can and should have their own unit test suites. Unit tests for plugins are an excellent way to control and eliminate sources of inaccuracy, particularly in the case of false positives.

Contributing test cases to plugins in the Community Ruleset is an excellent way to get involved in the community! Writing a new plugin test case is straight-forward and it’s an excellent place to start, particularly if you are new to Rust.
