clang-tidy does not detect 'bugprone-assert-side-effect' for Q_ASSERT and Q_ASSERT_X

I wanted to use clang-tidy to detect side effects in Q_ASSERT_X like in:

Q_ASSERT_X(x++ > 0, Q_FUNC_INFO, "x is >= 0!");

I can choose bugprone-assert-side-effect

but this seems to detect 'only' assert but not Q_ASSERT_X.

Following the link: "Web Page" you can read on https://releases.llvm.org/11.0.0/tools/clang/tools/extra/docs/clang-tidy/checks/bugprone-assert-side-effect.html#bugprone-assert-side-effect

But there is no GUI element to set the 'Options'.

It would be great to have a way to set the options.

Work around + suggestion:

Digging some further I finally found how to create a .clang-tidy file and put it in the folder of the source file and set the combo box from 'Select Checks' to 'Use .clang-tidy config file'.

The .clang-tidy file had to be:

Checks:          '-*,bugprone-assert-side-effect'
CheckOptions:
  - key: bugprone-assert-side-effect.CheckFunctionCalls
    value: '1'
  - key: bugprone-assert-side-effect.AssertMacros
    value: 'Q_ASSERT_X,Q_ASSERT,assert,assert2,my_assert,convoluted_assert,msvc_assert'

and so:

I'm missing a way to set the CheckOptions ( a list of key - value pairs) in the GUI.

Maybe a column between the check and the link to the web page could have a button to edit options?

At least a button next to 'Edit Checks as String...' on inside of the dialog that creates a dump to have a starting .clang-tidy would be great.
