+Frequently asked questions
+--------------------------
+
+**Q: I use nose to run my tests, and its cover plugin doesn't let me create
+HTML or XML reports.  What should I do?**
+
+First run your tests and collect coverage data with `nose`_ and its plugin.
+This will write coverage data into a .coverage file.  Then run coverage.py from
+the :ref:`command line <cmd>` to create the reports you need from that data.
+

+
+
+**Q: Why do unexecutable lines show up as executed?**
+
+Usually this is because you've updated your code and run coverage on it
+again without erasing the old data.  Coverage records line numbers executed, so
+the old data may have recorded a line number which has since moved, causing
+coverage to claim a line has been executed which cannot be.
+
+If you are using the ``-x`` command line action, it doesn't erase first by
+default.  Switch to the ``coverage run`` command, or use the ``-e`` switch to
+erase all data before starting the next run.
+
+
+**Q: Why do the bodies of functions (or classes) show as executed, but the def
+lines do not?**
+
+This happens because coverage is started after the functions are defined.  The
+definition lines are executed without coverage measurement, then coverage is
+started, then the function is called.  This means the body is measured, but
+the definition of the function itself is not.
+
+To fix this, start coverage earlier.  If you use the :ref:`command line <cmd>`
+to run your program with coverage, then your entire program will be monitored.
+If you are using the :ref:`API <api>`, you need to call coverage.start() before
+importing the modules that define your functions.
+
+
+**Q: Does coverage.py work on Python 3.x?**
+
+Yes, Python 3 is fully supported.
+
+
+**Q: Isn't coverage testing the best thing ever?**
+
+It's good, but `it isn't perfect`__.
