I was able to get the code coverage report by following the steps below,
Enable coverage on the build type you want (e.g. debug)
buildTypes { debug { testCoverageEnabled true } }
Apply Jacoco plugin and set version
apply plugin: 'jacoco' jacoco { version "0.7.1.201405082137" }
Run
./gradlew createDebugCoverageReport
All the tests in connectedAndroidTest are run and coverage report is generated based on them. I can find the coverage reports in
app/build/outputs/reports/coverage/{buildType}/index.html
and a coverage.ec file in
app/build/outputs/code-coverage/connected/coverage.ec
But no jacoco.exec since I am running from Android Instrumentation instead of Robolectric test cases.
And when I run the instrumentation from ADB ( I guess this is still using Emma ) as follows, I get a coverage.ec file as follows,
$ adb shell am instrument -w -e coverage true -e coverageFile /sdcard/coverage.ec com.sample.helloworld.test/.Runner
....
OK (4 tests)
Generated code coverage data to /sdcard/coverage.ec
But I am not able to convert the coverage.ec to report using emma since the coverage.em file is missing,
java -cp ~/adt-bundle-mac-x86_64-20130729/sdk/tools/lib/emma_device.jar emma report -r html -in \
coverage.em,myFile.ec,myapp_coverage1.ec -sp /path/to/myapp/src
Is there a way around this problem??
