Instead of further complicating pytest-cov, why not run diff-cover as a command of its own?
yep, a two step process is definitely an alternative :) ... but you could make a similar argument for reports in general right? Why not just run coverage report
after running pytest --cov
to generate the xml?
I'm wondering if you've considered (or would consider a PR) implementing support for
diff_cover
?I'm thinking something like
pytest --cov --cov-report=term-diff
, which would essentially run diff_cover and add it to the report? I took a stab at implementing this as an independent pytest plugin (that would in turn use pytest-cov), but found that it was rather difficult (and probably bad form) to essentially modify the pytest-cov plugin instance to achieve this.I'm happy to open PR trying to implement this, but wanted to gauge interest first. thanks!
