Foundry forge coverage

Visual line coverage report with LCOV

If you run "forge coverage" in a foundry project, you'll get a table showing how much of your lines and branches are covered.

If you want to see visually which lines and branches are or are not covered, use the following steps

Instructions to get line visual coverage in foundry

1. Install genhtml

brew install genhtml

2. Create a coverage directory in your foundry project

3. Run the following command

forge coverage --report lcov && genhtml lcov.info --branch-coverage --output-dir coverage

4. Open the following file

coverage/index.html
