DerivedDataTool

What does this project do?

This project provides a Swift-based tool that generates detailed code coverage reports from the xcresults files located in the DerivedData folder. Additionally, it archives old coverage reports, allowing users to compare them and identify trends over time.

Why is this project useful?

Code coverage is a crucial metric in software development that indicates how much of your codebase is covered by tests. This tool is useful for:

• Generating easy-to-read code coverage reports.
• Tracking code coverage trends over time.
• Identifying areas of your codebase that may need more testing.

By using this tool, developers can ensure their code is well-tested and maintain high quality standards.

How do I get started?

To get started with this tool, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/arconsis/derived-data-tool.git
   cd SwiftCodeCoverageTool

2. Install Dependencies: Ensure you have Swift and any required dependencies installed.

3. Run the Tool:

   • Ensure you have an xcresults file in your DerivedData folder.
   • Run the tool with the following command:

   swift run CodeCoverageTool

   • The tool will generate a coverage report and archive it for trend analysis.

4. View Reports: The generated reports will be located in the Reports folder. Open the latest report in your browser to view the coverage details.
