| Portfolio metrics and other project quality-related automated tools could consume JaCoCo results directly from CI to collect coverage data even if they don't have access to the codebase or build environment. The JaCoCo XML report is the most suitable representation of the coverage data to be processed by an automated tool. Currently, jacoco-plugin provides a link for the aggregated jacoco.exec file, however, it cannot be processed without having a working local build. The goal here is to provide an additional link in the coverage results page to download the aggregated jacoco.xml file. |
