Solved by using the following step definition on the respective step:
step([$class: 'ScoveragePublisher', reportDir: 'target', reportFile: 'scoverage.xml'])
Also, in scoverage maven configuration, i have set the following:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.scoverage</groupId>
<artifactId>scoverage-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${scoverage.plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<scalaVersion>${scala-library.version}</scalaVersion>
<aggregate>true</aggregate>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/Scoverage_Report/</outputDirectory>
</configuration>
</plugin>
