+## 📈 Code Coverage
+
+We run coverage checks on the CI. Once you submit a PR, you can review the
+line-by-line coverage report on
+[codecov](https://app.codecov.io/gh/CQCL/tket2/commits?branch=All%20branches).
+
+To run the rust coverage checks locally, install `cargo-llvm-cov`, generate the report with:
+```bash
+cargo llvm-cov --lcov > lcov.info
+```
+and open it with your favourite coverage viewer. In VSCode, you can use
+[`coverage-gutters`](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ryanluker.vscode-coverage-gutters).
+
+Similarly, to run the python coverage checks locally, install `pytest-cov` and run:
+```bash
+pytest --cov=./ --cov-report=xml
+```
