SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Measuring test coverage in .NET projects can be tedious, inconsistent across teams, and hard to compare over time; this Skill standardizes collection and reporting to help you improve code quality.

Core Features & Use Cases

Coverage collection: Use dotnet-coverage to gather coverage data from your tests for a given solution or project.
Report translation: Convert results into HTML or Cobertura formats with dotnet-reportgenerator-globaltool when you need human-friendly dashboards or CI integration.
Quality gate insights: Assess coverage alongside SonarQube or SonarCloud findings to prioritize remediation and improve maintainability.

Quick Start

Run dotnet-coverage on your test run to generate an XML report and, if needed, translate it with dotnet-reportgenerator-globaltool for HTML summaries.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate .NET test coverage collection for my solution?▼

Automating .NET test coverage involves using the dotnet-coverage tool to gather coverage data from unit tests, producing XML or Cobertura formats for repeatable quality metrics across your projects.

Can I generate HTML coverage reports for .NET projects?▼

Yes, you can convert .NET coverage results into HTML summaries by using the dotnet-reportgenerator-globaltool, which translates raw coverage data into human-friendly dashboards for easier analysis.

How does .NET code coverage integrate with SonarQube or SonarCloud?▼

.NET code coverage integrates with SonarQube or SonarCloud by exporting Cobertura or XML formats, allowing you to assess coverage findings alongside quality gates to prioritize remediation and improve maintainability.

What is the best way to standardize test coverage reporting across .NET teams?▼

Standardizing test coverage reporting requires automating the collection process with dotnet-coverage to generate consistent XML or Cobertura outputs, ensuring metrics remain comparable over time across different teams.

Do I need ReportGenerator to measure .NET test coverage?▼

No, ReportGenerator is optional and used for translating coverage results into HTML summaries; the core measurement of .NET test coverage relies on the dotnet-coverage tool to produce XML formats.

Why does my .NET code coverage data vary between different test runs?▼

Coverage data varies when collection is not standardized; automating the process with dotnet-coverage ensures repeatable and comparable quality metrics by consistently gathering data from your unit tests.
