Code Coverage with Maven (One Pass)

Probably not the only solution to generate a code coverage HMTL report during the maven build process, but the Emma plugin does the job. In one pass. The code is available from Github in the Code-Coverage-One-Pass directory.

Assuming the following class:

public class ClassToTest {

    public static int coveredMethod(int i) {
        return i + 2;
    }

    public static int uncoveredMethod(int i) {
        return i + 3;
    }

}

with the following JUnit test:

public class ClassToTestTest {

    public ClassToTestTest() {
    }

    @Test
    public void testCoveredMethod() {
        assertEquals(4,ClassToTest.coveredMethod(2));
    }

}

one can configure the pom.xml as following:

It will produce an index.html file in /target/site/emma/ (always the same location, so you can keep you browser open and refresh the after each build process):
