[dependabot-preview]

Bumps altcover from 6.1.708 to 7.4.808.

Release notes

Sourced from altcover's releases.

Genbu series release 13

• [BUGFIX] In some use cases, the error The "AltCover.ContingentCopy" task was not given a value for the required parameter "FileName". could be provoked by dotnet test (Issue #113)
• Extend to other Build Action types (at least all those that my VS2019 Community Edition was prepared to mention) the "If /p:AltCoverInPlace is not true, then copy all files in the project included as <[Action] Include="./[some subdirectory]/..." with CopyToOutputDirectory of Always or PreserveNewest to the appropriate relative location wrt the intrumented files" behaviour added for the None action in the previous release. File an issue report if you have yet another build action type that you need copying for a not-in-place test scenario.

Genbu series release 12

7.4.807

• [MAYBE BREAKING] Set InPlace default to false uniformly across the API
  • Add dotnet test command line option /p:AltCoverInPlace=true|false (default false)
  • If /p:AltCoverInPlace=true then /p:AltCoverForce=true has its pre-v7.3.805 meaning
  • Wire up "InPlace" to the Fake DotNet.test driver for the above
  • If /p:AltCoverInPlace is not true, then copy all files in the project included as <None Include="./[some subdirectory]/..." with CopyToOutputDirectory of Always or PreserveNewest to the appropriate relative location wrt the intrumented files
  • NB /p:AltCoverInPlace=true will not play well with the concurrent instrument-and-test behaviour of dotnet test [multipletestprojects].sln /p:AltCover="true" --output [commonArtifactsFolder]
• Allow --callContext and --single together, which will log at most one visit per context per location, not just one visit per location

Genbu series release 11a

7.3.806

• [BUGFIX] Handle concurrent instrumentation in the case dotnet test [multipletestprojects].sln /p:AltCover="true" --output [commonArtifactsFolder] -- only changes the .targets file

Genbu series release 11

7.3.805

• Extra detection and removal of compiler generated branches in C# async/await constructs
• Revise the whole dotnet test integration
  • Will support SDK versions back at least to v2.1.809, but v2.1.300 is definitely now out of support due to API changes to the Microsoft.TestPlatform.Build.Tasks.VSTestTask task in the interim
  • Rather than copy/instrument back to $(TargetDir)/clean and copy-back, now instrument to a new directory and test there; there are now no worries about instrumented code ever being in the actual build artifact output directory
  • /p:AltCoverForce=true now simply clears the instrumentation target directory, and gives an informational message only
  • Resolve the instrumentation directory once and only once -- prevents inconsistent handling in the case where command line parameter--output redirects $(TargetDir) part-way through the process
• Some refactoring and other build process improvements

Genbu series release 10

7.3.802

• Add a -qoption for AltCover, given once suppresses informational messages, twice also suppresses warnings and thrice also suppresses errors. Away from the command line, the option is called Verbosity, and is based on System.Diagnostics.TraceLevel -- the default level being Info, with Warning, Error and Off equivalent to -q, -qq and -qqq respectively. For the monent Verbose is the same as Info
• Other minor build process improvements

Genbu series release 9

7.2.801

• [BUGFIX] Don't ArgumentNullException when running the --callContext for async feature off the build machine
• [BUGFIX] Refactor to avoid "System.ArgumentException: An item with the same key has already been added. Key: AltCover.Recorder.g/7.2.0.0" that could occur in some rare circumstances while instrumenting code.
• Other minor build process improvements

Genbu series release 8

7.2.800

• [BUGFIX] Don't produce invalid IL when --callContext indicates a method with a non-void return (issue #105, and probably #26 too)
• [BUGFIX] Restore application icons, even if they only show in the .exe forms (lost in 7.1.795 if not before)
• [BUGFIX] Add AltCover prefix to MSBuild property names NetCoreEngine, NetStdEngine (global), InputDirectory and OutputDirectory (target-scoped) in the injected .targets file for dotnet test integration.
• [BUGFIX] Let the AvaloniaUI based visualizer roll forwards from netcoreapp2.1 onto later runtimes
• Finer-grained control of the coverage summary output
• When --callContext indicates an async method, then track all calls within the same async flow, and not just in the direct same-thread call stack. Note other out-of-thread calls (Thread.Start, Parallel.Invoke, explict Async-named method invocation, ...) are not tracked.
• Build with net5.0 SDK (modulo work-round for dotnet/fsharp#10442) in net5-only environments
  • Still build AltCover.exe/.dll against net472 for framework support, netcoreapp2.1 for the global tool and netcoreapp2.0 for everywhere else
  • Still build the GTK2 visualizer against net472 for consistency

Changelog

Sourced from altcover's changelog.

Previously

6.8.761 (Fukurou series release 13)

• Final 6.x release, barring serious bug-fixes
• Deprecate the dotnet-altcover DotNetCliToolReference Tool, package altcover.dotnet, prior to removal in the v7.0.xxx release. See dotnet/sdk#3115 for context
• Move delivered code to all new-style projects, and all supporting projects except where the old style is explicitly required
• [BUGFIX] Accept the OpenCover format variant generated by coverlet for PowerShell and, FWIW, the Visualizer.
• [BUGFIX] Provide a suitable binary (a simple shim called AltCover.NetCoreApp.dll) in the API nupkg for AltCover.Fake.Api.toolPath AltCover.Fake.Implementation.DotNetCore to return -- and test that it works, just like the build already tested AltCover.Fake.Api.toolPath AltCover.Fake.Implementation.Framework
• Ignore constructors for [<Sealed; AbstractClass>] types in F# for the purposes of coverage
• [API] AltCover.CoverageFormats.PostProcess to take an existing OpenCover format document and fill in the derived quantities e.g. <Summary> elements, sequence point branch visits, etc.
• [API] AltCover.CoverageFormats.FormatFromCoverlet to patch up the most obvious parts missing from coverlet's dialect of the OpenCover format e.g. start and end columns, npath complexity, etc. as well as all the PostProcess features. Also reified as the cmdlet Format-FromCoverletOpenCover

---

6.7.750 (Fukurou series release 12)

• [PowerShell] Improve the ConvertTo-BarChart cmdlet following the Visualizer-focussed enhancements in the previous release
• [PowerShell] Add -WhatIf capability to Invoke-AltCover for prepare and collect operations (syntax permitted, but meaningless for -Version)
• [PowerShell] Make the Invoke-AltCover -ShowStatic parameter take a typesafe enum (as well as untyped strings); a backwards compatible API extension.
• [Visualizer] new --schemadir[=path] command-line parameter to set or clear an application-level GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR value
• [API] PrepareParams.WhatIf : unit -> FSApi.ValidatedCommandLine; and CollectParams.WhatIf : bool -> FSApi.ValidatedCommandLine to do read-only parameter validation and command line composition
• [API] The equivalent public FSApi.ValidatedCommandLine PrepareArgs.WhatIf() and public FSApi.ValidatedCommandLine CollectArgs.WhatIf(bool afterPreparation) for the CSApi types

---

6.6.747 (Fukurou series release 11)

• [API, Fake Helper API] Deprecate the DotNet.TestOptions.WithImportModule and .WithGetVersion extension methods in favour of the otherwise identical DotNet.TestOptions.WithAltCoverImportModule and .WithAltCoverGetVersion; the obsolete name now just calls through to the preferred one.
• [API] --showstatic[:[-|+|++]] (string ShowStatic default "-" in API, -ShowStatic string PowerShell) to reveal the code usually auto-filtered (e.g. auto-properties, some system generated types, structure comparison methods in F#...); either with coverage value -3 (option '+') which is highlighted in the Visualizer but treated as 0 by ReportGenerator, or the value '0' (option '++')
• [API] --showGenerated (bool ShowGenerated default false in API, -ShowGenerated PowerShell) to reveal the code marked by [CompilerGenerated] or [GeneratedCode] with coverage value -2which is highlighted in the Visualizer but treated as 0 by ReportGenerator
• [Visualizer, BUGFIX] fix the sorting of method by name for NCover format
• [Visualizer] group property get_ and set_, and event add_ and remove_, methods together, under an appropriate icon
• [Visualizer] For F# modules containing only types, group the contents together under a module entry at class level, just as they would have been were the module to directly contain any functions
• [Visualizer] Types that only contain an Invoke method and constructors are shown with an approriate icon, too.
• [3rd Party] With the latest GTK#3 update, the GTK+ native libraries for win-x64 are no longer bundled into the nuget -- this seems to have been a transient behaviour in GtkSharp v3.22.25.49 only

---

6.5.739 (Fukurou series release 10)

• [Command-line and CLI tool] Rolling forwards with runtimeconfig.template.json -- it's not just for global tools : make all the executables .net core 3+ compatible.
  • this now packages the GTK# assemblies, and GTK+ native libraries for win-x64, for the .net core visualizer
  • also enable the build to execute on hosts with nothing before .net core 3 runtime
• [API, Fake Helper API] Deprecate the DotNet.TestOptions.WithParameters extension method in favour of the otherwise identical DotNet.TestOptions.WithAltCoverParameters; the obsolete name now just calls through to the preferred one.
• [Visualizer tool] Update GTK# for .net Core
• [BUGFIX] In ConvertFrom-NCover, don't add classes for which there is no method coverage data. This mainly affects system generated classes implementation details, including ones actually called <PrivateImplementationDetails$...>...
• In cobertura format output, including the ConvertTo-Cobertura cmdlet, truncate rates to 2 decimal places (equivalent to integral percentages used elsewhere)

---

6.4.734 (Fukurou series release 9)

• [FAKE Helper API] Fake >= 5.18.1 is required for this release (the work-round for FAKE issue #2412 has been removed)
• [FAKE Helper API] Add this constraint as an explicit dependency
• [API] Add Tool of String a literal alongside FilePath of String, which is expanded to a full path to TypeSafe.FilePath
• [API] Add IncludeItem of Regex which represents a ?-prefix regex string to TypeSafe.FilterItem
• Trap and log exceptions reported in Issue #71 as files <coverage report path>.<timestamp>.exn
• Other housekeeping

---

6.3.729 (Fukurou series release 8)

• Filter out assemblies without the ILOnly bit set (i.e. pretty much anything C++/CLI, even with the deprecated /clr:pure compiler flag set)
• [FAKE Helper API] Fake >= 5.18.0 is required for this release
