## Code coverage for Solidity testing
![coverage example][22]
+ For more details about what this is, how it works and potential limitations,
see [the accompanying article][16].
+ `solidity-coverage` is [Solcover][17]
## Install
```
$ npm install --save-dev solidity-coverage@beta
```
## Truffle V5
**Add** this package to your plugins array in `truffle-config.js`
```javascript
module.exports = {
networks: {...},
plugins: ["solidity-coverage"]
}
```
**Run**
```
truffle run coverage [command-options]
```
## Usage notes:
+ Coverage runs tests a little more slowly.
+ Coverage launches its own in-process ganache server.
+ You can set [ganache options][1] using the `providerOptions` key in your `.solcover.js` [config][15].
+ Coverage [distorts gas consumption][13]. Tests that check exact gas consumption should be skipped.
## Command Options
| Option < img width = 200/ > | Example < img width = 750/ > | Description < img width = 1000/ > |
|--------------|------------------------------------|--------------------------------|
| file | `--file="test/registry/*.js"` | Filename or glob describing a subset of JS tests to run. (Globs must be enclosed by quotes.)|
| solcoverjs | `--solcoverjs ./../.solcover.js` | Relative path from working directory to config. Useful for monorepo packages that share settings. (Path must be "./" prefixed) |
| network | `--network development` | Use network settings defined in the Truffle config |
| temp[< sup > *</ sup > ][14] | `--temp build` | :warning: **Caution** :warning: Path to a *disposable* folder to store compilation artifacts in. Useful when your test setup scripts include hard-coded paths to a build directory. [More...][14] |
| version | | Version info |
| help | | Usage notes |

## Config Options
Additional options can be specified in a `.solcover.js` config file located in the root directory
of your project.
**Example:**
```javascript
module.exports = {
skipFiles: ['Routers/EtherRouter.sol']
};
```
| Option < img width = 200/ > | Type < img width = 200/ > | Default < img width = 700/ > | Description < img width = 1000/ > |
| ------ | ---- | ------- | ----------- |
| silent | *Boolean* | false | Suppress logging output |
| client | *Object* | `require("ganache-core")` | Useful if you need a specific ganache version. |
| providerOptions | *Object* | `{ }` | [ganache-core options][1] |
| skipFiles | *Array* | `['Migrations.sol']` | Array of contracts or folders (with paths expressed relative to the `contracts` directory) that should be skipped when doing instrumentation. |
| istanbulReporter | *Array* | `['html', 'lcov', 'text']` | [Istanbul coverage reporters][2] |
| mocha | *Object* | `{ }` | [Mocha options][3] to merge into existing mocha config. `grep` and `invert` are useful for skipping certain tests under coverage using tags in the test descriptions.|
| onServerReady[< sup > *</ sup > ][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* server is launched, *before* the tests execute. Useful if you need to use the Oraclize bridge or have setup scripts which rely on the server's availability. [More...][23] |
| onCompileComplete[< sup > *</ sup > ][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* compilation completes, *before* tests are run. Useful if you have secondary compilation steps or need to modify built artifacts. [More...][23]|
| onTestsComplete[< sup > *</ sup > ][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* the tests complete, *before* Istanbul reports are generated.|
| onIstanbulComplete[< sup > *</ sup > ][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* the Istanbul reports are generated, *before* the ganache server is shut down. Useful if you need to clean resources up.|
