## NAME

cobertura-check — show which classes do not have adequate test coverage

## SYNOPSIS

**cobertura-check** \[**--branch 0..100**\]  \[**--datafile file**\]  \[**--line 0..100**\]  \[**--regex regex:branchrate:linerate**\]  \[**--packagebranch 0..100**\]  \[**--packageline 0..100**\]  \[**--totalbranch 0..100**\]  \[**--totalline 0..100**\]

## DESCRIPTION

**cobertura-check** can be run after your JUnit tests  to show which classes do not have adequate test coverage.

## OPTIONS

If no parameters are specified then all values will be set to  50%.

- **--branch 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable branch coverage rate needed  by each class. This should be an integer value between 0 and  100. Default value is 0.

- **--datafile file**

  Specify the name of the file containing metadata about  your classes. Default value: "./cobertura.ser".

- **--line 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable line coverage rate needed  by each class. This should be an integer value between 0 and  100. Default value is 0.

- **--regex regex:branchrate:linerate**

  For finer grained control, you can optionally specify  minimum branch and line coverage rates for individual classes  using any number of regular expressions.

- **--packagebranch 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable average branch coverage  rate needed by each package. This should be an integer value  between 0 and 100. Default value is 0.

- **--packageline 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable average line coverage  rate needed by each package. This should be an integer value  between 0 and 100. Default value is 0.

- **--totalbranch 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable average branch coverage  rate needed by the project as a whole. This should be an  integer value between 0 and 100. Default value is 0.

- **--totalline 0..100**

  Specify the minimum acceptable average line coverage  rate needed by the project as a whole. This should be an  integer value between 0 and 100. Default value is 0.
