How to show code coverage of test project itself

[fernandreu (Fernando Andreu)]

I am using SonarCloud for a .NET Core 3.1 application to collect as much information of the CI system (Azure Pipelines) as I can. So far so good; I have been able to include code coverage of my main source project, as well as the test results (in .trx format).

Now I am wondering if I can include code coverage results of the test projects themselves (i.e. not just the code they are calling, which is already working fine). I believe this information should already be in the coverage report being uploaded but, for some reason, it is not appearing in my project page.

Is there any setting that I need to change for this information to appear?

A few more details:

• Project repository: GitHub - fernandreu/office-ribbonx-editor: An overhauled fork of the original Custom UI Editor for Microsoft Office, built with WPF
  • The main source project is in src/OfficeRibbonXEditor
  • The test projects are in tests/*Tests
• SonarCloud page of the project: https://sonarcloud.io/dashboard?id=fernandreu_office-ribbonx-editor
• CI build of the project (the .Net Core job): https://dev.azure.com/fernandreu-public/OfficeRibbonXEditor/_build/latest?definitionId=1&branchName=master
  • Coverage results for a recent build as shown in Azure Pipelines is here. You can see this includes the test projects
  • I am using the standard Azure Pipelines tasks for setting up the SonarCloud analysis, with just a few extra settings to pass the paths to the test / coverage results files

Thanks!
Fernando

Hi @fernandreu and welcome to the community !

By design, tests projects classified as such by our analyzer don’t get any analysis nor coverage.

However, you can explicitely include wanted analyzed tests projects by adding this property in the .csproj :

<SonarQubeTestProject>true</SonarQubeTestProject>

It should be working then.
