test_cov

Description:

test cov

test_cov #
A simple command-line tool to collect test coverage information from
Dart VM tests. It is useful if you need to generate coverage reports
locally during development.
Usage #
Add dev dependency to your pubspec.yaml:
dev_dependencies:
test_cov: ^0.2.1

Run pub get to install. Then, in the root of your project run:
pub run test_cov
copied to clipboard
Result is saved in coverage/lcov.info. If you have lcov tool
installed on your system (for Mac it's brew install lcov) you can
generate coverage reports using genhtml command:
genhtml -o coverage coverage/lcov.info
# Open in the default browser (mac):
open coverage/index.html

Integrations #
Resulting coverage/lcov.info file is ready to be consumed by
Codecov command-line tool, so no extra step is needed.
This library was not tested with coveralls yet.
Known limitations #

This library was created to run Dart VM tests. It has not been tested
and likely won't work for Dart code targeting web platform (compiled
to JavaScript). There is no need to use this tool for Flutter as it
allows collecting coverage information with flutter test --coverage.

How it works #
The tool performs following steps:
1. Generates test/.test_cov.dart file which is essentially a "test all" script. #
It is recommended to add this file to your .gitignore.
Below is an example of test/.test_cov.dart:
// Auto-generated by test_cov. Do not edit by hand.
// Consider adding this file to your .gitignore.

import 'some_test.dart' as some_test;
import 'nested/other_test.dart' as other_test;
import 'some_other_test.dart' as some_other_test;
void main() {
some_test.main();
other_test.main();
some_other_test.main();
}

2. Runs the tests #
Following command is used to run the tests:
dart --pause-isolates-on-exit --enable-vm-service test/.test_cov.dart
copied to clipboard
3. Collects and formats coverage information #
When test execution is completed the tool uses functionality of the
coverage package to collect and format coverage report.
