-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`__.
