Cobertura action

GitHub Action which parse a XML cobertura report and display the metrics in a GitHub Pull Request.

Many coverage tools can be configured to output cobertura reports:

This action will not currently work when triggered by pull requests from forks, like is common in open source projects. This is because the token for forked pull request workflows does not have write permissions on the target repository. Hopefully GitHub will have a solution for this in the future. In the meantime one can use utilize multiple workflows and artifacts to circumvent this. See the workflows in this project for an implementation example and this blog post https://securitylab.github.com/research/github-actions-preventing-pwn-requests.

How it looks like

A comment is added to the pull request with the coverage report.

alt text

A check is added to the workflow run.

alt text

The check will succeed or fail based on your threshold when fail_below_threshold is set to true, this allows you to mandate coverage checks pass on your protected branches.

Inputs

path

The path to the cobertura report. Defaults to coverage.xml. Glob pattern is supported, for example coverage/*.xml.

link_missing_lines

link_missing_lines_source_dir
