Coverlet + GitHub Actions

Automating your code coverage is the most effective way to prevent technical debt. This guide shows you how to integrate Coverlet into your GitHub Actions workflows in under 5 minutes.

Basic Workflow Example

Add this step to your .github/workflows/main.yml file to generate coverage during every push or pull request:

- name: Test with Coverlet
  run: dotnet test --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"

- name: Upload coverage to Codecov
  uses: codecov/codecov-action@v3
  with:
    files: ./**/coverage.cobertura.xml

Why GitHub Actions & Coverlet?

By combining Coverlet with GitHub Actions, you can ensure that every single PR is vetted for quality. Most open-source projects use this exact combination to maintain high standards across distributed teams.
