Exploring the History of the Snyk Code Results

You can view the results of previous Snyk Code tests that were performed on an imported repository. The result history can include the following Snyk Code tests:

• The first test that was performed when the repository was initially imported to Snyk.

• Recurring tests that were automatically performed according to a pre-defined schedule.

• Tests that were performed on-demand using the Retest now option.

The result history is shown in the History page of the Code Analysis Project. This page displays the snapshots that were taken when a test was performed.

Only two unique snapshots can be shown on the History page. A unique snapshot means that the repository or its vulnerability results have changed since the last test, and the snapshot that was taken for the new test reflects these changes, and it is different from the previous one. If the repository or its results have not changed since the last test, the new snapshot will be identical to the previous snapshot, and it will be shown as an additional test on the History page. Therefore, you may have multiple past tests displayed on the History page, but at the most only two of them will show different results.

To view the result history of a repository:

1. On the Code Analysis Project page of the required repository > Header area, click the History tab:

The History page appears, displaying the list of tests that were performed by Snyk Code on the selected repository:

2. To display the snapshot of a previous test, click the required test on the History page:
