+ |
+When you install coverage.py, a command-line script simply called ``coverage`` |
+is placed in your Python scripts directory. To help with multi-version |
+installs, it will also create either a ``coverage2`` or ``coverage3`` alias, |
+and a ``coverage-X.Y`` alias, depending on the version of Python you're using. |
+For example, when installing on Python 2.7, you will be able to use |
+``coverage``, ``coverage2``, or ``coverage-2.7`` on the command line. |
+ |
+Coverage.py has a number of commands which determine the action performed: |
+ |
+* **run** -- Run a Python program and collect execution data. |
+ |
+* **report** -- Report coverage results. |
+ |
+* **html** -- Produce annotated HTML listings with coverage results. |
+ |
+* **xml** -- Produce an XML report with coverage results. |
+ |
+* **annotate** -- Annotate source files with coverage results. |
+ |
+* **erase** -- Erase previously collected coverage data. |
+ |
+* **combine** -- Combine together a number of data files. |
+ |
+* **debug** -- Get diagnostic information. |
+ |
+Help is available with the **help** command, or with the ``--help`` switch on |
+any other command:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage help |
+ $ coverage help run |
+ $ coverage run --help |
+ |
+Version information for coverage.py can be displayed with |
+``coverage --version``. |
+ |
+Any command can use a configuration file by specifying it with the |
+``--rcfile=FILE`` command-line switch. Any option you can set on the command |
+line can also be set in the configuration file. This can be a better way to |
+control coverage.py since the configuration file can be checked into source |
+control, and can provide options that other invocation techniques (like test |
+runner plugins) may not offer. See :ref:`config` for more details. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_execution: |
+ |
+Execution |
+--------- |
+ |
+You collect execution data by running your Python program with the **run** |
+command:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage run my_program.py arg1 arg2 |
+ blah blah ..your program's output.. blah blah |
+ |
+Your program runs just as if it had been invoked with the Python command line. |
+Arguments after your file name are passed to your program as usual in |
+``sys.argv``. Rather than providing a file name, you can use the ``-m`` switch |
+and specify an importable module name instead, just as you can with the |
+Python ``-m`` switch:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage run -m packagename.modulename arg1 arg2 |
+ blah blah ..your program's output.. blah blah |
+ |
+If you want :ref:`branch coverage <branch>` measurement, use the ``--branch`` |
+flag. Otherwise only statement coverage is measured. |
+ |
+You can specify the code to measure with the ``--source``, ``--include``, and |
+``--omit`` switches. See :ref:`Specifying source files <source_execution>` for |
+details of their interpretation. Remember to put options for run after "run", |
+but before the program invocation:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage run --source=dir1,dir2 my_program.py arg1 arg2 |
+ $ coverage run --source=dir1,dir2 -m packagename.modulename arg1 arg2 |
+ |
+Coverage.py can measure multi-threaded programs by default. If you are using |
+more exotic concurrency, with the `multiprocessing`_, `greenlet`_, `eventlet`_, |
+or `gevent`_ libraries, then coverage.py will get very confused. Use the |
+``--concurrency`` switch to properly measure programs using these libraries. |
+Give it a value of ``greenlet``, ``eventlet``, or ``gevent``. |
+ |
+.. _multiprocessing: https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html |
+.. _greenlet: http://greenlet.readthedocs.org/en/latest/ |
+.. _gevent: http://www.gevent.org/ |
+.. _eventlet: http://eventlet.net/ |
+ |
+By default, coverage.py does not measure code installed with the Python |
+interpreter, for example, the standard library. If you want to measure that |
+code as well as your own, add the ``-L`` flag. |
+ |
+If your coverage results seem to be overlooking code that you know has been |
+executed, try running coverage.py again with the ``--timid`` flag. This uses a |
+simpler but slower trace method. Projects that use DecoratorTools, including |
+TurboGears, will need to use ``--timid`` to get correct results. |
+ |
+If you are measuring coverage in a multi-process program, or across a number of |
+machines, you'll want the ``--parallel-mode`` switch to keep the data separate |
+during measurement. See :ref:`cmd_combining` below. |
+ |
+During execution, coverage.py may warn you about conditions it detects that |
+could affect the measurement process. The possible warnings include: |
+ |
+* "Trace function changed, measurement is likely wrong: XXX" |
+ |
+ Coverage measurement depends on a Python setting called the trace function. |
+ Other Python code in your product might change that function, which will |
+ disrupt coverage.py's measurement. This warning indicate that has happened. |
+ The XXX in the message is the new trace function value, which might provide |
+ a clue to the cause. |
+ |
+* "Module XXX has no Python source" |
+ |
+ You asked coverage.py to measure module XXX, but once it was imported, it |
+ turned out not to have a corresponding .py file. Without a .py file, |
+ coverage.py can't report on missing lines. |
+ |
+* "Module XXX was never imported" |
+ |
+ You asked coverage.py to measure module XXX, but it was never imported by |
+ your program. |
+ |
+* "No data was collected" |
+ |
+ Coverage.py ran your program, but didn't measure any lines as executed. |
+ This could be because you asked to measure only modules that never ran, |
+ or for other reasons. |
+ |
+* "Module XXX was previously imported, but not measured." |
+ |
+ You asked coverage.py to measure module XXX, but it had already been imported |
+ when coverage started. This meant coverage.py couldn't monitor its |
+ execution. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_datafile: |
+ |
+Data file |
+--------- |
+ |
+Coverage.py collects execution data in a file called ".coverage". If need be, |
+you can set a new file name with the COVERAGE_FILE environment variable. |
+ |
+By default,each run of your program starts with an empty data set. If you need |
+to run your program multiple times to get complete data (for example, because |
+you need to supply disjoint options), you can accumulate data across runs with |
+the ``-a`` flag on the **run** command. |
+ |
+To erase the collected data, use the **erase** command:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage erase |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_combining: |
+ |
+Combining data files |
+-------------------- |
+ |
+If you need to collect coverage data from different machines or processes, |
+coverage.py can combine multiple files into one for reporting. |
+ |
+Once you have created a number of these files, you can copy them all to a |
+single directory, and use the **combine** command to combine them into one |
+.coverage data file:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage combine |
+ |
+You can also name directories or files on the command line:: |
+ |
+ $ combine combine data1.dat windows_data_files/ |
+ |
+Coverage.py will collect the data from those places and combine them. The |
+current directory isn't searched if you use command-line arguments. If you |
+also want data from the current directory, name it explicitly on the command |
+line. |
+ |
+When coverage.py looks in directories for data files to combine, even the |
+current directory, it only reads files with certain names. It looks for files |
+named the same as the data file (defaulting to ".coverage"), with a dotted |
+suffix. Here are some examples of data files that can be combined:: |
+ |
+ .coverage.machine1 |
+ .coverage.20120807T212300 |
+ .coverage.last_good_run.ok |
+ |
+The ``run --parallel-mode`` switch automatically creates separate data files |
+for each run which can be combined later. The file names include the machine |
+name, the process id, and a random number:: |
+ |
+ .coverage.Neds-MacBook-Pro.local.88335.316857 |
+ .coverage.Geometer.8044.799674 |
+ |
+If the different machines run your code from different places in their file |
+systems, coverage.py won't know how to combine the data. You can tell |
+coverage.py how the different locations correlate with a ``[paths]`` section in |
+your configuration file. See :ref:`config_paths` for details. |
+ |
+.. _cmd_reporting: |
+ |
+Reporting |
+--------- |
+ |
+Coverage.py provides a few styles of reporting, with the **report**, **html**, |
+**annotate**, and **xml** commands. They share a number of common options. |
+ |
+The command-line arguments are module or file names to report on, if you'd like |
+to report on a subset of the data collected. |
+ |
+The ``--include`` and ``--omit`` flags specify lists of file name patterns. |
+They control which files to report on, and are described in more detail in |
+:ref:`source`. |
+ |
+The ``-i`` or ``--ignore-errors`` switch tells coverage.py to ignore problems |
+encountered trying to find source files to report on. This can be useful if |
+some files are missing, or if your Python execution is tricky enough that file |
+names are synthesized without real source files. |
+ |
+If you provide a ``--fail-under`` value, the total percentage covered will be |
+compared to that value. If it is less, the command will exit with a status |
+code of 2, indicating that the total coverage was less than your target. This |
+can be used as part of a pass/fail condition, for example in a continuous |
+integration server. This option isn't available for **annotate**. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_summary: |
+ |
+Coverage summary |
+---------------- |
+ |
+The simplest reporting is a textual summary produced with **report**:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage report |
+ Name Stmts Miss Cover |
+ --------------------------------------------- |
+ my_program.py 20 4 80% |
+ my_module.py 15 2 86% |
+ my_other_module.py 56 6 89% |
+ --------------------------------------------- |
+ TOTAL 91 12 87% |
+ |
+For each module executed, the report shows the count of executable statements, |
+the number of those statements missed, and the resulting coverage, expressed |
+as a percentage. |
+ |
+The ``-m`` flag also shows the line numbers of missing statements:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage report -m |
+ Name Stmts Miss Cover Missing |
+ ------------------------------------------------------- |
+ my_program.py 20 4 80% 33-35, 39 |
+ my_module.py 15 2 86% 8, 12 |
+ my_other_module.py 56 6 89% 17-23 |
+ ------------------------------------------------------- |
+ TOTAL 91 12 87% |
+ |
+If you are using branch coverage, then branch statistics will be reported in |
+the Branch and BrPart (for Partial Branch) columns, the Missing column will |
+detail the missed branches:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage report -m |
+ Name Stmts Miss Branch BrPart Cover Missing |
+ --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+ my_program.py 20 4 10 2 80% 33-35, 36->38, 39 |
+ my_module.py 15 2 3 0 86% 8, 12 |
+ my_other_module.py 56 6 5 1 89% 17-23, 40->45 |
+ --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+ TOTAL 91 12 18 3 87% |
+ |
+You can restrict the report to only certain files by naming them on the |
+command line:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage report -m my_program.py my_other_module.py |
+ Name Stmts Miss Cover Missing |
+ ------------------------------------------------------- |
+ my_program.py 20 4 80% 33-35, 39 |
+ my_other_module.py 56 6 89% 17-23 |
+ ------------------------------------------------------- |
+ TOTAL 76 10 87% |
+ |
+The ``--skip-covered`` switch will leave out any file with 100% coverage, |
+letting you focus on the files that still need attention. |
+ |
+Other common reporting options are described above in :ref:`cmd_reporting`. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_html: |
+ |
+HTML annotation |
+--------------- |
+ |
+Coverage.py can annotate your source code for which lines were executed |
+and which were not. The **html** command creates an HTML report similar to the |
+**report** summary, but as an HTML file. Each module name links to the source |
+file decorated to show the status of each line. |
+ |
+Here's a `sample report`__. |
+ |
+__ http://nedbatchelder.com/files/sample_coverage_html/index.html |
+ |
+Lines are highlighted green for executed, red for missing, and gray for |
+excluded. The counts at the top of the file are buttons to turn on and off |
+the highlighting. |
+ |
+A number of keyboard shortcuts are available for navigating the report. |
+Click the keyboard icon in the upper right to see the complete list. |
+ |
+The title of the report can be set with the ``title`` setting in the |
+``[html]`` section of the configuration file, or the ``--title`` switch on |
+the command line. |
+ |
+If you prefer a different style for your HTML report, you can provide your |
+own CSS file to apply, by specifying a CSS file in the ``[html]`` section of |
+the configuration file. See :ref:`config_html` for details. |
+ |
+The ``-d`` argument specifies an output directory, defaulting to "htmlcov":: |
+ |
+ $ coverage html -d coverage_html |
+ |
+Other common reporting options are described above in :ref:`cmd_reporting`. |
+ |
+Generating the HTML report can be time-consuming. Stored with the HTML report |
+is a data file that is used to speed up reporting the next time. If you |
+generate a new report into the same directory, coverage.py will skip |
+generating unchanged pages, making the process faster. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_annotation: |
+ |
+Text annotation |
+--------------- |
+ |
+The **annotate** command produces a text annotation of your source code. With |
+a ``-d`` argument specifying an output directory, each Python file becomes a |
+text file in that directory. Without ``-d``, the files are written into the |
+same directories as the original Python files. |
+ |
+Coverage status for each line of source is indicated with a character prefix:: |
+ |
+ > executed |
+ ! missing (not executed) |
+ - excluded |
+ |
+For example:: |
+ |
+ # A simple function, never called with x==1 |
+ |
+ > def h(x): |
+ """Silly function.""" |
+ - if 0: #pragma: no cover |
+ - pass |
+ > if x == 1: |
+ ! a = 1 |
+ > else: |
+ > a = 2 |
+ |
+Other common reporting options are described above in :ref:`cmd_reporting`. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_xml: |
+ |
+XML reporting |
+------------- |
+ |
+The **xml** command writes coverage data to a "coverage.xml" file in a format |
+compatible with `Cobertura`_. |
+ |
+.. _Cobertura: http://cobertura.sourceforge.net |
+ |
+You can specify the name of the output file with the ``-o`` switch. |
+ |
+Other common reporting options are described above in :ref:`cmd_reporting`. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_debug: |
+ |
+Diagnostics |
+----------- |
+ |
+The **debug** command shows internal information to help diagnose problems. |
+If you are reporting a bug about coverage.py, including the output of this |
+command can often help:: |
+ |
+ $ coverage debug sys > please_attach_to_bug_report.txt |
+ |
+Two types of information are available: ``sys`` to show system configuration, |
+and ``data`` to show a summary of the collected coverage data. |
+ |
+ |
+.. _cmd_run_debug: |
+ |
+The ``--debug`` option is available on all commands. It instructs coverage.py |
+to log internal details of its operation, to help with diagnosing problems. It |
+takes a comma-separated list of options, each indicating a facet of operation |
+to log: |
+ |
+* ``callers``: annotate each debug message with a stack trace of the callers |
+ to that point. |
+ |
+* ``config``: before starting, dump all the :ref:`configuration <config>` |
+ values. |
+ |
+* ``dataio``: log when reading or writing any data file. |
+ |
+* ``dataop``: log when data is added to the CoverageData object. |
+ |
+* ``pid``: annotate all debug output with the process id. |
+ |
+* ``plugin``: print information about plugin operations. |
+ |
+* ``sys``: before starting, dump all the system and environment information, |
+ as with :ref:`coverage debug sys <cmd_debug>`. |
+ |
+* ``trace``: print every decision about whether to trace a file or not. For |
+ files not being traced, the reason is also given. |
+ |
+Debug options can also be set with the ``COVERAGE_DEBUG`` environment variable, |
+a comma-separated list of these options. |
+ |
+The debug output goes to stderr, unless the ``COVERAGE_DEBUG_FILE`` environment |
+variable names a different file, which will be appended to. |
