Publish NCover Report

To publish NCover reports, you need:

  1. Generate NCover SymbolModuleNamespaceClassMethod XML reports by using NCover.
  2. Add a Publish NCover Reports step in your configuration steps.

After doing this, QuickBuild will generate the NCover reports automatically.

warning
  • QuickBuild only parses the XML reports.
  • NCover version should be 3.0+
  • The NCover report type should be SymbolModuleNamespaceClassMethod

Generate NCover XML Reports

The NCover SymbolModuleNamespaceClassMethod XML reports can be generated from NCover command tool or msbuild or nant. Below we are using msbuild to generate the coverage report:

<UsingTask 
TaskName="NCover.MSBuildTasks.NCover"
AssemblyFile="C:\Program Files\NCover\Build Task Plugins\NCover.MSBuildTasks.dll" />
<UsingTask
TaskName="NCover.MSBuildTasks.NCoverReporting"
AssemblyFile="C:\Program Files\NCover\Build Task Plugins\NCover.MSBuildTasks.dll" />

<Target Name="Coverage">
<NCover ToolPath="C:\Program Files\NCover\"
TestRunnerExe="$(NUnitPath)\nunit-console.exe"
TestRunnerArgs="TestAssembly1.dll TestRunner2.dll"
CoverageFile="Coverage.xml"/>
</Target>

<PropertyGroup>
<Reports>
<Report>
<ReportType>SymbolModuleNamespaceClassMethod</ReportType>
<Format>Xml</Format>
<OutputPath>$(outputDir)\smncm.xml</OutputPath>
</Report>
</Reports>
</PropertyGroup>

<Target Name="CreateCoverageReports">
<NCoverReporting ToolPath="C:\Program Files\NCover\"
CoverageDataPaths="Coverage.xml"
OutputReport="$(Reports)"
/>
</Target>
