How would I add an annotation to exclude a method

问题:

I have some code in Java that I want to exclude from code coverage. How would I do this? I want to be able to add an annotation. Is there a way to configure or extend jacoco (as used in gradle) to use this?

Example:

public class Something
{
    @ExcludeFromCodeCoverage
    public void someMethod() {}
}

As of today there is no such feature in latest released version of JaCoCo (0.7.9). Only whole classes can be excluded.

On page https://github.com/jacoco/jacoco/wiki/FilteringOptions#annotation-based-filtering (which is dedicated for developers) this is recorded as an idea for future versions.

Official JaCoCo documentation contains information about how to obtain latest unreleased build as well as list of unreleased changes for next version - http://www.jacoco.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/changes.html , which includes various filters, among which filtering of methods that are generated by Lombok and Groovy and marked by annotations lombok.Generated and groovy.transform.Generated respectively. Potentially you can abuse this, but I wouldn't recommend to do so for many various reasons.
