solidity-coverage

Code coverage for Solidity testing

For more details about what this is, how it works and potential limitations, see the accompanying article.
solidity-coverage is Solcover

Install

$ npm install --save-dev solidity-coverage

0.7.0 release notes
A guide to upgrading from 0.6.x to 0.7.x
0.6.3 docs

Truffle V5

Add this package to your plugins array in truffle-config.js (Truffle docs)

module.exports = {
  networks: {...},
  plugins: ["solidity-coverage"]
}

Run

truffle run coverage [command-options]

Hardhat

Beginning with v0.7.12, this tool supports Hardhat and runs directly on HardhatEVM.

Require the plugin in hardhat.config.js (Hardhat docs)

require('solidity-coverage')

Run

npx hardhat coverage [command-options]

(Additional Hardhat-specific info can be found here)

@openzeppelin/test-environment

OpenZeppelin have written their own coverage generation scripts for test-environment using the solidity-coverage API. A working example can be found at openzeppelin-contracts, here.

Usage notes:

Coverage runs tests a little more slowly.
Coverage launches its own in-process ganache server.
You can set ganache options using the providerOptions key in your .solcover.js config.
Coverage distorts gas consumption. Tests that check exact gas consumption should be skipped.
⚠️ Contracts are compiled without optimization. Please report unexpected compilation faults to issue 417

Command Options

Option	Example	Description
file	`--file="test/registry/*.js"`	(Truffle) Filename or glob describing a subset of tests to run. (Globs must be enclosed by quotes and use globby matching patterns)
testfiles	`--testfiles "test/registry/*.ts"`	(Buidler) Test file(s) to run. (Globs must be enclosed by quotes and use globby matching patterns)
solcoverjs	`--solcoverjs ./../.solcover.js`	Relative path from working directory to config. Useful for monorepo packages that share settings. (Path must be "./" prefixed)
network	`--network development`	Use network settings defined in the Truffle or Buidler config
temp^*	`--temp build`	⚠️ Caution ⚠️ Path to a disposable folder to store compilation artifacts in. Useful when your test setup scripts include hard-coded paths to a build directory. More...

^* Advanced use

Config Options

Additional options can be specified in a .solcover.js config file located in the root directory of your project.

Example:

module.exports = {
  skipFiles: ['Routers/EtherRouter.sol']
};

Option	Type	Default	Description
silent	Boolean	false	Suppress logging output
client	Object	`require("ganache-core")`	Useful if you need a specific ganache version.
providerOptions	Object	`{ }`	ganache-core options
skipFiles	Array	`['Migrations.sol']`	Array of contracts or folders (with paths expressed relative to the `contracts` directory) that should be skipped when doing instrumentation.
measureStatementCoverage	boolean	`true`	Computes statement (in addition to line) coverage. More...
measureFunctionCoverage	boolean	`true`	Computes function coverage. More...
istanbulFolder	String	`./coverage`	Folder location for Istanbul coverage reports.
istanbulReporter	Array	`['html', 'lcov', 'text', 'json']`	Istanbul coverage reporters
mocha	Object	`{ }`	Mocha options to merge into existing mocha config. `grep` and `invert` are useful for skipping certain tests under coverage using tags in the test descriptions.
coverageContractsTemp	String	`.coverage_contracts`	Temporary folder location for instrumented contracts - Note that this directory will automatically be deleted when coverage completes.
onServerReady^*	Function		Hook run after server is launched, before the tests execute. Useful if you need to use the Oraclize bridge or have setup scripts which rely on the server's availability. More...
onPreCompile^*	Function		Hook run after filesystem and compiler configuration is applied, before the compiler is run. Can be used with the other hooks to be able to generate coverage reports on non-standard / customized directory structures, as well as contracts with absolute import paths. More...
onCompileComplete^*	Function		Hook run after compilation completes, before tests are run. Useful if you have secondary compilation steps or need to modify built artifacts. More...
onTestsComplete^*	Function		Hook run after the tests complete, before Istanbul reports are generated. More...
onIstanbulComplete^*	Function		Hook run after the Istanbul reports are generated, before the ganache server is shut down. Useful if you need to clean resources up. More...
configureYulOptimizer	Boolean	false	(Experimental) Setting to `true` should resolve "stack too deep" compiler errors in large projects using ABIEncoderV2
solcOptimizerDetails	Object	`undefined`	(Experimental) Must be used in combination with `configureYulOptimizer`. Allows you configure solc's optimizer details. Useful if the default remedy for stack-too-deep errors doesn't work in your case (See FAQ below).

API

Solidity-coverage's core methods and many utilities are available as an API.

const CoverageAPI = require('solidity-coverage/api');

Documentation available here.

Detecting solidity-coverage from another task

If you're writing another plugin or task, it can be helpful to detect whether coverage is running or not. The coverage plugin sets a boolean variable on the globally injected hardhat environment object for this purpose.

hre.__SOLIDITY_COVERAGE_RUNNING === true
