coveralls 0.2 (beta)

Show coverage stats online via coveralls.io

Usage (Travis CI)

This library will publish your coverage results on coveralls.io for everyone to see (unless you're using pro account). This package can possibly work with different CI environments, but it's only tested to work with Travis CI atm.

1. First, log in via Github and add your repo on Coveralls website.

2. Add pip install coveralls to install section of .travis.yml

3. Make sure you run your tests with coverage during the build in script part. Example:

   # --source specifies what packages to cover, you probably want to use that option
   script:
       coverage run --source=yourpackagename setup.py test
   

   Note, that example command will gather coverage for specified package. If you wish to customize what's included in your reports, consult coverage docs.

4. Execute run coveralls in after_success section:

   after_success:
       coveralls
   

Full example of .travis.yml:

language: python
python:
  - 2.7
  - 3.3
install:
  - pip install -r requirements.txt --use-mirrors
  - pip install coveralls --use-mirrors
script:
  - coverage run --source=moscowdjango,meetup manage.py test
after_success:
  - coveralls

# .coveralls.yml
repo_token: TjkDuVpGjuQcRhNW8dots9c8SSnv7ReM5

How it works

It makes custom report for data generated by coverage.py package and sends it to json API of coveralls.io service. All python files in your coverage analysis are posted to this service along with coverage stats, so please make sure you're not ruining your own security! For private projects there is Coveralls Pro.

Tips for coverage.rc config

This section is a list of most common options for coverage.py, which collects all the data. Coveralls feeds from this data, so it's good to know how to to configure it.

To limit the report with only your packages, specify their names (or directores):

[run]
source = coveralls,your_otherpackage

To exclude parts of your source from coverage, for example migrations folders:

[run]
omit = */migrations/*

Some lines are never executed in your tests, but that can be ok. To mark those lines use inline comments right in your source code:

if debug:   # pragma: no cover
  msg = "blah blah"
  log_message(msg, a)

Sometimes it can be tedious to mark them in code, so you can specify whole lines to .coveragerc:

[report]
exclude_lines =
    pragma: no cover
    def __repr__
    raise AssertionError
    raise NotImplementedError
    if __name__ == .__main__.:
