# solidity-coverage [![Gitter chat](https://badges.gitter.im/sc-forks/solidity-coverage.svg)][18] ![npm (tag)](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/solidity-coverage/latest) [![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/sc-forks/solidity-coverage.svg?style=svg)][20] [![codecov](https://codecov.io/gh/sc-forks/solidity-coverage/branch/master/graph/badge.svg)][21] [![Hardhat](https://hardhat.org/buidler-plugin-badge.svg?1)][26] ## 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] ## Requirements + Hardhat >= 2.11.0 ## Install ``` $ yarn add solidity-coverage --dev ``` **Require** the plugin in `hardhat.config.js` ([Hardhat docs][26]) ```javascript require('solidity-coverage') ``` Or, if you are using TypeScript, add this to your hardhat.config.ts: ```ts import 'solidity-coverage' ``` **Resources**: + [0.8.0 release notes][31] ## Run ``` npx hardhat coverage [command-options] ``` ### Trouble shooting **Missing or unexpected coverage?** Make sure you're using the latest plugin version and run: ```sh $ npx hardhat clean $ npx hardhat compile $ npx hardhat coverage ``` **Typescript compilation errors?** ```sh $ npx hardhat compile $ TS_NODE_TRANSPILE_ONLY=true npx hardhat coverage ``` **Weird test failures or plugin conflicts?** ```sh # Setting the `SOLIDITY_COVERAGE` env variable tells the coverage plugin to configure the provider # early in the hardhat task cycle, minimizing conflicts with other plugins or `extendEnvironment` hooks $ SOLIDITY_COVERAGE=true npx hardhat coverage ``` **Additional Help** + [FAQ][1007] + [Advanced Topics][1005] ## Command Options | Option | Example | Description | |--------------|------------------------------------|--------------------------------| | testfiles | `--testfiles "test/registry/*.ts"` | Test file(s) to run. (Globs must be enclosed by quotes and use [globby matching patterns][38])| | sources | `--sources myFolder` or `--sources myFile.sol` | Path to *single* folder or file to target for coverage. Path is relative to Hardhat's `paths.sources` (usually `contracts/`) | | solcoverjs | `--solcoverjs ./../.solcover.js` | Relative path from working directory to config. Useful for monorepo packages that share settings. (Path must be "./" prefixed) | | matrix | `--matrix` | Generate a JSON object that maps which mocha tests hit which lines of code. (Useful as an input for some fuzzing, mutation testing and fault-localization algorithms.) [More...][39]| [^* Advanced use][14] ## 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 | Type | Default | Description | | ------ | ---- | ------- | ----------- | | skipFiles | *Array* | `[]` | Array of contracts or folders (with paths expressed relative to the `contracts` directory) that should be skipped when doing instrumentation.(ex: `[ "Routers", "Networks/Polygon.sol"]`) :warning: **RUN THE HARDHAT CLEAN COMMAND AFTER UPDATING THIS** | | modifierWhitelist | *String[]* | `[]` | List of modifier names (ex: `onlyOwner`) to exclude from branch measurement. (Useful for modifiers which prepare something instead of acting as a gate.)) | | 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. [More...][24]| | measureStatementCoverage | *boolean* | `true` | Computes statement (in addition to line) coverage. [More...][34] | | measureFunctionCoverage | *boolean* | `true` | Computes function coverage. [More...][34] | | measureModifierCoverage | *boolean* | `true` | Computes each modifier invocation as a code branch. [More...][34] | | **:printer: OUTPUT** | | | | | matrixOutputPath | *String* | `./testMatrix.json` | Relative path to write test matrix JSON object to. [More...][39]| | mochaJsonOutputPath | *String* | `./mochaOutput.json` | Relative path to write mocha JSON reporter object to. [More...][39]| | abiOutputPath | *String* | `./humanReadableAbis.json` | Relative path to write diff-able ABI data to | | istanbulFolder | *String* | `./coverage` | Folder location for Istanbul coverage reports. | | istanbulReporter | *Array* | `['html', 'lcov', 'text', 'json']` | [Istanbul coverage reporters][2] | | silent | *Boolean* | false | Suppress logging output | | **:recycle: WORKFLOW HOOKS** | | | | | onServerReady[^*][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] | | onPreCompile[^*][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* instrumentation is performed, *before* the compiler is run. Can be used with the other hooks to be able to generate coverage reports on non-standard / customized directory structures, as well as contracts with absolute import paths. [More...][23] | | onCompileComplete[^*][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[^*][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* the tests complete, *before* Istanbul reports are generated. [More...][23]| | onIstanbulComplete[^*][14] | *Function* | | Hook run *after* the Istanbul reports are generated, *before* the coverage task completes. Useful if you need to clean resources up. [More...][23]| | **:warning: DEPRECATED** | | | | | configureYulOptimizer | *Boolean* | false | **(Deprecated since 0.8.7)** Setting to `true` should resolve "stack too deep" compiler errors in large projects using ABIEncoderV2 | | solcOptimizerDetails | *Object* | `undefined` |**(Deprecated since 0.8.7))** Must be used in combination with `configureYulOptimizer`. Allows you configure solc's [optimizer details][1001]. Useful if the default remedy for stack-too-deep errors doesn't work in your case (See [FAQ: Running out of stack][1002] ). | [^* Advanced use][14] ## Viewing the reports: + You can find the Istanbul reports written to the `./coverage/` folder generated in your root directory. ## API Solidity-coverage's core methods and many utilities are available as an API. ```javascript const CoverageAPI = require('solidity-coverage/api'); ``` [Documentation available here][28]. ## Detecting solidity-coverage from another task If you're writing another plugin or task, it can be helpful to detect whether coverage is running or not. The coverage plugin sets a boolean variable on the globally injected hardhat environment object for this purpose. ``` hre.__SOLIDITY_COVERAGE_RUNNING === true ``` ## Example reports + [openzeppelin-solidity][10](Codecov) ## Funding You can help fund solidity-coverage development through [DRIPS][1008]. It's a public goods protocol which helps distribute money to packages in your dependency tree. (It's great, check it out.) ## Contribution Guidelines Contributions are welcome! If you're opening a PR that adds features or options *please consider writing full [unit tests][11] for them*. (We've built simple fixtures for almost everything and are happy to add some for your case if necessary).
