About Audit Assistant Auto-Prediction

You can configure Fortify Software Security Center to send issues for Audit Assistant prediction automatically after FPRs are successfully uploaded and processed. (If you prefer to submit FPRs for prediction manually, then there is no need to configure auto-prediction.)

If both auto-predict and auto-apply are enabled for an application version, then Audit Assistant automatically applies predicted values to custom tags on new issues after prediction is completed. (Audit Assistant prediction results are always applied to an application version, but if auto-apply is not enabled, the information is stored only in Audit Assistant-specific tags. If auto-apply is enabled, Audit Assistant-specific values are also mapped to other tags, based on the configuration.)

Only unpredicted issues (uncovered by a supported analyzer) found at the end of FPR processing are automatically submitted to Audit Assistant for assessment. Once Audit Assistant has assessed an issue, it does not revisit that issue.

Enabling Auto-prediction

Auto-prediction enablement for an application version is a two-step process. First, an administrator enables it system-wide during Audit Assistant configuration. Configuring Audit Assistant.) After this, users can enable auto-prediction on a per-application-version basis from the PROFILE window. (See Enabling Auto-Apply and Auto-Predict for an Application Version.)
