Managing the quality standards at the organization level

On this page

This page explains how to configure organization settings related to quality gates or quality profiles and requiring the Administer organization permission.

To manage the quality gates in your organization, see Managing quality gates.

To manage the quality profiles in your organization, see Managing quality profiles.

Changing the quality gate fudge factor at the organization level

The quality gate fudge factor refers to a mechanism where conditions on duplication and coverage are ignored until the number of new lines is at least 20. This is used to avoid overly strict enforcement when dealing with small changes, as minor issues might disproportionately impact the overall quality gate status. By default, the quality gate fudge factor is enabled. 

The fudge factor can be enabled or disabled at the organization and project levels. The project-level has precedence over the organization-level configuration.
