If you want to analyse a project with SonarQube and Jenkins, here's what you need:

• A SonarQube server up and running

• A Jenkins server up and running with the SonarQube Scanner for Jenkins installed and configure to point to your SonarQube server

• A job configured to run a SonarQube analysis on your project:

Everything is described more in details on the SonarQube Scanner for Jenkins documentation page.
