I'm working on code coverage for a Java library. It's a SOAP/REST client. The client has several packages dataTypes.generated. for the generated types for connecting to the server side. For working with the client there is a translation layer to some more common types just in the dataTypes package, that I also want to filter out of coverage. However, I do have some some utility classes in dataTypes.helpers that I want to keep included.
I've tried:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
<artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.7.4.201502262128</version>
<configuration>
<dataFile>${project.build.directory}/jacoco.exec</dataFile>
<destFile>${project.build.directory}/jacoco.exec</destFile>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/dataTypes/*.*</exclude>
<exclude>**/generated/*</exclude>
<exclude>**/generated/**</exclude> -->
</excludes>
<includes>
<include>**/dataTypes/helpers/*</include>
</includes>
</plugin>
however, That didn't remove it from coverage.
In EclEmma I then set:
Includes: *:**/dataTypes/helpers/*
Excludes: **/dataTypes/*:**/generated/*
That didn't work either. It actually seemed to break something in EclEmma and code coverage didn't display at all.
I had it working at one point.
I used Excludes: but that doesn't remove code from coverage, it just forces coverage to 0%, I'd just rather not see it in the report at all. How can I do that?
