octocov is a toolkit for collecting code metrics (code coverage, code to test ratio, test execution time and your own custom metrics).

Key features of octocov are:

• Useful both as a CI tool and as a CLI tool
• Support multiple coverage report formats.
• Support multiple code metrics.
• Support for even generating coverage report badges.
• Have a mechanism to aggregate reports from multiple repositories.

Getting Started

On GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions for octocov is here !!

First, run test with coverage report output.

For example, in case of Go language, add -coverprofile=coverage.out option as follows

$ go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out

And generete .octocov.yml to your repository.

$ octocov init
.octocov.yml is generated

And set up a workflow file as follows and run octocov on GitHub Actions.

# .github/workflows/ci.yml
name: Test

on:
  pull_request:

jobs:
  test:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      -
        uses: actions/checkout@v3
      -
        uses: actions/setup-go@v4
        with:
          go-version-file: go.mod
      -
        name: Run tests with coverage report output
        run: go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out
      -
        uses: k1LoW/octocov-action@v1

Then, octocov comment the report of the code metrics to the pull request.

It is also possible to add reports to GitHub Actions Job Summaries by editing .octocov.yml.

It can also be inserted into the body of a pull request.

Note that only pull requests from the same repository can be commented on (Reporting to GitHub Actions Job Summaries is permitted). This is because the workflow token of a forked pull request does not have write permission.

On Terminal

octocov acts as a code metrics viewer on the terminal.

For example, in case of Go language, add -coverprofile=coverage.out option as follows

$ go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out

And run octocov ls-files , octocov view [FILE...] and octocov diff [REPORT_A] [REPORT_B]

Usage example

Comment report to pull request

By setting comment:, comment the reports to pull request.

# .octocov.yml
comment:
  hideFooterLink: false # hide octocov link

octocov checks for "Code Coverage" by default. If it is running on GitHub Actions, it will also measure "Test Execution Time".

If you want to measure "Code to Test Ratio", set codeToTestRatio:.

comment:
codeToTestRatio:
  code:
    - '**/*.go'
    - '!**/*_test.go'
  test:
    - '**/*_test.go'

By setting report: ( report.path: or report.datastores ) and diff: ( diff.path: or diff.datastores ) additionally, it is possible to show differences from previous reports as well.

comment:
report:
  datastores:
    - artifact://${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}
diff:
  datastores:
    - artifact://${GITHUB_REPOSITORY}

Check for acceptable score

By setting coverage.acceptable:, the condition of acceptable coverage is specified.

If this condition is not met, the command will exit with exit status 1.

# .octocov.yml
coverage:
  acceptable: 60%

$ octocov
Error: code coverage is 54.9%. the condition in the `coverage.acceptable:` section is not met (`60%`)

By setting codeToTestRatio.acceptable:, the condition of acceptable "Code to Test Ratio" is specified.

If this condition is not met, the command will exit with exit status 1.

# .octocov.yml
codeToTestRatio:
  acceptable: 1:1.2
  code:
    - '**/*.go'
    - '!**/*_test.go'
  test:
    - '**/*_test.go'

$ octocov
Error: code to test ratio is 1:1.1, the condition in the `codeToTestRatio.acceptable:` section is not met (`1:1.2`)

By setting testExecutionTime.acceptable:, the condition of acceptable "Test Execution Time" is specified (on GitHub Actions only) .

If this condition is not met, the command will exit with exit status 1.

# .octocov.yml
testExecutionTime:
  acceptable: 1 min

$ octocov
Error: test execution time is 1m15s, the condition in the `testExecutionTime.acceptable:` section is not met (`1 min`)

Generate report badges self.

By setting *.badge.path:, generate badges self.

# .octocov.yml
coverage:
  badge:
    path: docs/coverage.svg

# .octocov.yml
codeToTestRatio:
  badge:
    path: docs/ratio.svg

# .octocov.yml
testExecutionTime:
  badge:
    path: docs/time.svg

You can display the coverage badge without external communication by setting a link to this badge image in README.md, etc.

# mytool

![coverage](docs/coverage.svg) ![coverage](docs/ratio.svg) ![coverage](docs/time.svg)

Push report badges self.

By setting push:, git push report badges self.

# .octocov.yml
coverage:
  badge:
    path: docs/coverage.svg
push:

Store report to datastores

By setting report:, store the reports to datastores and local path.

# .octocov.yml
report:
  datastores:
    - github://owner/coverages/reports
    - s3://bucket/reports

# .octocov.yml
report:
  path: path/to/report.json

Supported datastores

• GitHub repository
• GitHub Actions Artifacts
• Amazon S3
• Google Cloud Storage (GCS)
• BigQuery

Central mode

By enabling central:, octocov acts as a central repository for collecting reports ( example ).

# .octocov.yml for central mode
central:
  root: .                                  # root directory or index file path of collected coverage reports pages. default: .
  reports:
    datastores:
      - bq://my-project/my-dataset/reports # datastore paths (URLs) where reports are stored. default: local://reports
  badges:
    datastores:
      - local://badges                     # directory where badges are generated.
  push:                                    # enable self git push

Supported coverage report formats

octocov supports multiple coverage report formats.

And octocov searches for the default path for each format.

If you want to specify the path of the report file, set coverage.path

coverage:
  paths:
    - /path/to/coverage.txt

Go coverage

Default path: coverage.out

LCOV

Default path: coverage/lcov.info

Support SF DA only

SimpleCov

Default path: coverage/.resultset.json

Clover

Default path: coverage.xml

Cobertura

Default path: coverage.xml

JaCoCo

Default path: build/reports/jacoco/test/jacocoTestReport.xml

Supported code metrics

• Code Coverage
• Code to Test Ratio
• Test Execution Time (on GitHub Actions only)

Custom metrics

octocov accepts custom metrics in addition to the three supporting metrics.

Specify the path to the custom metrics JSON file in an environment variable prefixed with OCTOCOV_CUSTOM_METRICS_ to collect the code metrics at the same time.

The JSON schema for custom metrics can be found here.

If there are multiple custom metrics JSON files, specify each file path in a separate environment variable (example here) or combine the JSONs that satisfy the JSON schema into an array.

Detecting pull request number

octocov detect pull request number following order.

1. Get pull request number from GITHUB_PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER or OCTOCOV_GITHUB_PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER.
2. Get pull request number from GITHUB_REF ( e.g. refs/pull/1/merge ).
3. Get branch name from GITHUB_REF ( e.g. refs/heads/branch/branch/name ) and detect pull request number using GitHub API.

Override environment variables

If an environment variable with prefix OCTOCOV_ is set, it is used as an unprefixed environment variable in octocov.

For example, if OCTOCOV_GITHUB_REF is set, it is handled as GITHUB_REF in octocov.

This feature allows environment variables that cannot normally be overridden to be changed on octocov.
