# Overriding scopes

For each of the section of the analysis (security, stability, licensing) the client can either analyze all the dependencies or only the ones that will be part of the production package, skipping the dependencies used in tests.

This is normally configured in the dashboard, but the client can override those defaults:

**--scopes=all**

All scopes will be part of the analysis.

**--scopes=prod**

Only production scopes will be part of the analysis.
