Microsoft Code Coverage
Microsoft Code Coverage measures how much of a project’s code is exercised by coded tests, such as unit tests. Its documented workflows cover.NET test projects with `dotnet test` and other.NET applications with the `dotnet-coverage` tool. It analyzes managed CLR and unmanaged native code using static or dynamic instrumentation; native coverage is disabled by default in the MTP extension. With Microsoft.Testing.Platform.MSBuild, extensions are auto-registered with MSTest, NUnit, and xUnit runners. The MTP extension can produce coverage, XML, and Cobertura reports, with settings for output, inclusion and exclusion rules, and instrumentation. It runs on Windows, macOS, and multiple Linux distributions, though instrumentation support varies by OS, version, and architecture. Other operating systems are supported on a best-effort basis, and some combinations allow static instrumentation only. Dynamic instrumentation on macOS and Linux requires libxml2, and missing dependencies may leave a report empty. MTP also excludes test assemblies by default unless configured otherwise. The plan is free.
