Is there a way to get reverse-code coverage for external tests

[gauta...@gmail.com]

Hi there,
We are using Jacoco to get code coverage for our External End to End tests, by enabling jacoco agent in our Application's launch and its happily working. Is there a way I can pass a "test name" etc from outside such that jacoco.exec which gets generated have markers on the lines getting covered by the test.
And that way when I merge all the jacoco dumps I would get "test name" tests hitting from outside to my App's code. So just like for JUnit Coverage Report, we show which test hit what line, can we get it for External Tests?
Thanks
Gautam

Hi Gautam,

JaCoCo does not support “per test” coverage reports out of the box.

Using JaCoCo’s remoting APIs (see JMX or TCP output) you can trigger separate dumps for every test case and reset coverage data afterwards. From this you could create a separate report for every test.

A combined report (“which tests hit a specific line”) is not supported by JaCoCo’s reports.
