#SolCover
###Installation and preparation
From your truffle directory, clone this repo:
```
git clone http://github.com/area/solcover.git
cd solcover
npm install
```
Until [Truffle allows the `--network` flag for the `test` command](https://github.com/ConsenSys/truffle/issues/239), in `truffle.js` you have to set a large gas amount for deployment. While this is set, uninstrumented tests likely won't run correctly, so this should only be set when running the coverage tests. An appropriately modified `truffle.js` might look like
```
module.exports = {
rpc: {
host: 'localhost',
gasPrice: 20e9,
gas: 0xfffffff,
}
};
```
In the future, hopefully just adding the 'coverage' network to `truffle.js` will be enough. This will look like
```
module.exports = {
rpc: {
host: 'localhost',
gasPrice: 20e9,
},
networks:{
"coverage":{
gas: 0xfffffff,
}
}
}
```
and will not interfere with normal `truffle test` - or other commands - being run during development.
###Execution
Firstly, make sure that your contracts in your truffle directory are saved elsewhere too - this script moves them and modifies them to do the instrumentation and allow `truffle` to run the tests with the instrumented contracts. It returns them after the tests are complete, but if something goes wrong, then `originalContracts` in the truffle directory should contain the unmodified contracts.
From inside the SolCover directory, run
```node ./runCoveredTests.js```
Upon completion of the tests, open the `./coverage/index.html` file to browse the HTML coverage report.
###TODO
- [ ] Turn into a true command line tool, rather than just a hacked-together script
- [ ] Release on NPM
- [ ] Do not modify the `../contract/` directory at all during operation (might need changes to truffle)
- [ ] Support for arbitrary testing commands
- [ ] [You tell me](http://github.com/area/solcover/issues)
