Cobertura merging to generic coverage plugin?

[jxpe...@godaddy.com]

The wiki page for the Cobertura plugin says:

The current thinking is to merge this plugin into more generic coverage plugin. Help appreciated.

Is this still the current thinking? I'm interested in helping if so. We currently use Cobertura (or sometimes even HtmlPublish) for iOS and JS builds, but Jacoco for Android. A unified plugin might make things simpler.

Probably that thinking was thought by Stephen Connolly several years
ago, but yes that sounds like a good plan if it is feasible. Does not
sound like an easy refactoring.

I agree some refactoring and generalization (e.g. via Coverage API Plugin) will be really useful, especially since shuch generic APIs may be required soon when and if BlueOcean starts supporting coverages in its UIs. On the other hand it is still a big effort investment if you want to do it correctly and to integrate other coverage plugins (Emma, JaCoCo, Clover, etc.).

So we need to understand who is ready to drive it first.

I'd guess this thread is now revived, because we have such project in GSoC 2018: https://jenkins.io/projects/gsoc/2018/code-coverage-api-plugin/
