Frequently Asked Questions

Which testing tools does CCS work with?

Code Coverage Summary is designed for use with Coverlet and gcovr but it should work with any test framework that outputs coverage in Cobertura format including:

• Coverlet
• gcovr
• coverage.py
• Istanbul
• Maven
• simplecov

Is this Action only for Linux?

Unfortunately as a Docker based Action, Code Coverage Summary will only work on a Linux runner. This is a GitHub Actions limitation, see Types of Action.

If you need to build your code with a Windows or MacOS runner, a possible workaround would be to upload the coverage file from the build job as an artifact and use a separate job with a Linux runner to generate the summary.
