# Dist::Zilla::App::Command::cover(3pm)

Code coverage metrics for your distribution

## NAME

Dist::Zilla::App::Command::cover - Code coverage metrics for your distribution

## VERSION

version 1.101001

## SYNOPSIS

```
    # dzil cover -outputdir /my/dir
```

## DESCRIPTION

This is a command plugin for Dist::Zilla. It provides the `"cover"` command, which generates code coverage metrics for your distribution using Devel::Cover.

If there were any test errors, the `"cover"` command won't be run. Author and release tests are not run since they should not be counted against code coverage. Any additional command-line arguments are passed to the `"cover"` command.
