README

Enforce code coverage in your CI with ease! Not by percentage, but target core functionality.

  • 🎮 Game-changer: Innovative approach to code coverage enforcement!
  • 💾 Legacy-friendly: Allows you to start enforcing for new code only!
  • ⚙️ Extensible: You specify what must be covered!
  • 🕸️ Lightweight: Only depends on nikic/php-parser
  • 🍰 Easy-to-use: No config needed for first try

This tool helps ensure that certain code blocks are covered by tests, typically core methods in Facades, Controllers, and other key areas of your application.

Installation

composer require --dev shipmonk/coverage-guard

Simple usage

vendor/bin/phpunit --coverage-clover clover.xml # Run tests with coverage
vendor/bin/coverage-guard clover.xml

Supported coverage formats

  • PHPUnit clover format (.xml, recommended)
  • PHPUnit corbertura format (.xml)
  • PHPUnit serialized PHP format (.cov)

Verifying only changed code

git diff master...HEAD > changes.patch
vendor/bin/coverage-guard clover.xml --patch changes.patch # Without config, reports only fully new methods with 0% line coverage
  • When patch is provided, this tool will only analyse changed files and methods and won't report violations from elsewhere.
  • This allows you to gradually enforce code coverage for new code only.

Configuration

Create a coverage-guard.php file in your project root to customize behavior and set up your CoverageRules. The config file must return an instance of ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Config:

<?php

use ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Config;
use ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Hierarchy\CodeBlock;
use ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Hierarchy\ClassMethodBlock;
use ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Rule\CoverageRule;
use ShipMonk\CoverageGuard\Rule\CoverageError;

$config = new Config();

// Your main specification of what must be covered
$config->addRule(new class implements CoverageRule {

    public function inspect(
        CodeBlock $codeBlock,
        bool $patchMode, // true when --patch was provided (thus only changed files and methods are analyzed)
    ): ?CoverageError
    {
        if (!$codeBlock instanceof ClassMethodBlock) {
            return null; // let's analyse only class methods
        }

        if (
            $codeBlock->isChangedAtLeastByPercent(50) // important for patch mode, otherwise all lines are considered changed
            && !$codeBlock->isCoveredAtLeastByPercent(50)
        ) {
            $shortClassName = $codeBlock->getMethodReflection() // you can rule based on reflection
                ->getDeclaringClass()
                ->getShortName();

            $methodRef = "{$shortClassName}::{$codeBlock->getMethodName()}";
            $coverage = (int) $codeBlock->getCoveragePercentage();
            $infix = $patchMode ? ' was significantly changed, but' : '';

            $error = "Method <white>$methodRef</white>$infix has only $coverage %% coverage.";

            return CoverageError::message($error);
        }

        return null;
    }

});

// Replace prefix of absolute paths in coverage files
// Handy if you want to reuse clover.xml generated in CI
$config->addCoveragePathMapping('/absolute/ci/prefix', __DIR__);

// As filepaths in git patches are relative to the project root, you can specify the root directory here
// It gets autodetected if cwd is beside /.git/ or if git binary is available
$config->setGitRoot(__DIR__);

return $config;

You can also use a custom config file by --config config.php.

Cli options

  • --patch <branch-diff.patch> verify only changed code
  • --config <path/to/coverage-guard.php> specify a custom config filepath

Even --option=value syntax is supported.
