Powerful code coverage visualization
ReportGenerator converts coverage reports generated by coverlet, OpenCover, dotCover, Visual Studio, NCover, Cobertura, JaCoCo, Clover, gcov, or lcov into human readable reports in various formats.
The reports show the coverage quotas and also visualize which lines of your source code have been covered.
ReportGenerator supports merging several coverage files into a single report.
ReportGenerator is a commandline tool which works with full .NET Framework and .NET Core.

Explanations:
Reports: The coverage reports that should be parsed (separated by semicolon).
Globbing is supported.
Target directory: The directory where the generated report should be saved.
Report types: The output formats and scope (separated by semicolon).
Values: Badges, Clover, Cobertura, CsvSummary,
MarkdownSummary, MarkdownAssembliesSummary, MarkdownSummaryGithub, MarkdownDeltaSummary
OpenCover
Html, Html_Light, Html_Dark, Html_BlueRed
HtmlChart, HtmlInline, HtmlSummary, Html_BlueRed_Summary
HtmlInline_AzurePipelines, HtmlInline_AzurePipelines_Light, HtmlInline_AzurePipelines_Dark
JsonSummary, CodeClimate, Latex, LatexSummary, lcov, MHtml, SvgChart, SonarQube, TeamCitySummary
TextSummary, TextDeltaSummary
Xml, XmlSummary
Source directories: Optional directories which contain the corresponding source code (separated by semicolon).
The source directories are used if coverage report contains classes without path information.
Globbing is not supported.
History directory: Optional directory for storing persistent coverage information.
Can be used in future reports to show coverage evolution.
Plugins: Optional plugin files for custom reports or custom history storage (separated by semicolon).
Assembly filters: Optional list of assemblies that should be included or excluded in the report.
Class filters: Optional list of classes that should be included or excluded in the report.
File filters: Optional list of files that should be included or excluded in the report.
Risk hotspot assembly filters: Optional list of assemblies that should be included or excluded in the risk hotspots.
Risk hotspot class filters: Optional list of classes that should be included or excluded in the risk hotspots.
Exclusion filters take precedence over inclusion filters.
Wildcards are allowed.
Verbosity: The verbosity level of the log messages.
Values: Verbose, Info, Warning, Error, Off
Title: Optional title.
Tag: Optional tag or build version.
License: Optional license for PRO version. Get your license here: https://reportgenerator.io/pro
License can also be supplied via 'REPORTGENERATOR_LICENSE' environment variable.
Default values:
-reporttypes:Html
-assemblyfilters:+*
-classfilters:+*
-filefilters:+*
-riskhotspotassemblyfilters:+*
-riskhotspotclassfilters:+*
-verbosity:Info
Examples:
"-reports:coverage.xml" "-targetdir:C:\report"
"-reports:target\*\*.xml" "-targetdir:C:\report" -reporttypes:Latex;HtmlSummary -title:IntegrationTest -tag:v1.4.5
"-reports:coverage1.xml;coverage2.xml" "-targetdir:report" "-sourcedirs:C:\MyProject" -plugins:CustomReports.dll
"-reports:coverage.xml" "-targetdir:C:\report" "-assemblyfilters:+Included;-Excluded.*"
All the above parameters can also be persisted in a .netconfig file, under a [ReportGenerator] section. Examples:
[ReportGenerator] reports = "coverage.xml" targetdir = "C:\\report" reporttypes = "Latex;HtmlSummary" assemblyfilters = "+Test;-Test" classfilters = "+Test2;-Test2"
All the plural options can also be specified as multiple singular entries, like:
[ReportGenerator] report = "coverage1.xml" report = "coverage2.xml" reporttype = "Latex" reporttype = "HtmlSummary" assemblyfilter = "+Test" assemblyfilter = "-Test" classfilter = "+Test2" classfilter = "-Test2" filefilter = "+cs" filefilter = "-vb" riskhotspotassemblyfilter = "+Test" riskhotspotassemblyfilter = "-Test" riskhotspotclassfilter = "+Test2" riskhotspotclassfilter = "-Test2" sourcedir = "src" sourcedir = "test"
Adding/removing values is trivial using the dotnet-config CLI:
# set a single-valued variable dotnet config reportgenerator.reporttypes Latex;HtmlSummary # add to multi-valued variable dotnet config --add reportgenerator.report coverage3.xml # clear all multi-valued entries for a variable dotnet config --unset-all reportgenerator.assemblyfilter
Of course it's equally trivial to just edit the .netconfig file by hand.
A MSBuild task also exists:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Project DefaultTargets="Coverage" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/developer/msbuild/2003" ToolsVersion="4.0">
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="ReportGenerator" Version="x.y.z" />
</ItemGroup>
<Target Name="Coverage">
<ItemGroup>
<CoverageFiles Include="OpenCover.xml" />
</ItemGroup>
<ReportGenerator ProjectDirectory="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)" ReportFiles="@(CoverageFiles)" TargetDirectory="report" ReportTypes="Html;Latex" HistoryDirectory="history" Plugins="CustomReports.dll" AssemblyFilters="+Include;-Excluded" VerbosityLevel="Verbose" />
</Target>
</Project>
The MSBuild task parameters can be complemented with the .netconfig, if used. That means that parameters can be omitted if they are provided via .netconfig, which is useful when reusing fixed settings across multiple projects in a solution, where the MSBuild task is only provided the dynamic values for the current project:
Given the following .netconfig:
[ReportGenerator] reporttypes = "Html;Latex" targetdirectory = "report" historydirectory = "history" assemblyfilters = "+Include;-Excluded" verbosityLevel = "Verbose"
The above target could be simplified as:
<Target Name="Coverage">
<ItemGroup>
<CoverageFiles Include="OpenCover.xml" />
</ItemGroup>
<ReportGenerator ProjectDirectory="$(MSBuildProjectDirectory)"
ReportFiles="@(CoverageFiles)"
Plugins="CustomReports.dll" />
</Target> Supported input and output file formats
ReportGenerator supports several input and output formats.
The wiki explains the different output formats or you can download sample reports of all supported output formats.
If you need a custom format, you can create a plugin.
The screenshots show two snippets of the generated reports:
Badges
Badges in SVG format can be generated if -reporttypes:Badges is used:
The following extensions exist to visualize coverage in Visual Studio:
