Simple `coverage` Exclusions

Simple coverage Exclusions

This is a simple plugin for Coverage.py. When you enable it, for example in pyproject.toml:

[tool.coverage.run]
plugins = ["coverage_simple_excludes"]

Then, in addition to the default # pragma: no cover, you get several more comments in the format # cover-... that you can use to specify that lines or blocks of code should be excluded from coverage, for example:

if sys.platform != 'win32':  # cover-not-win32
    print("This code is only executed on non-win32 systems")
else:  # cover-only-win32
    print("This code is only executed on win32 systems")

if sys.hexversion < 0x03_0C_00_00:  # cover-req-lt3.12
    print("This code is only executed on a version of Python before 3.12")
else:  # cover-req-ge3.12
    print("This code is only executed on Python 3.12 or later")

• # cover-req-ltX.Y and # cover-req-geX.Y, where:
  • X and Y are the major and minor Python version, respectively
  • lt means "a Python version less than (<) X.Y is required for this line or block of code to be executed and included in the coverage check"
  • ge means "a Python version greater than or equal to (>=) X.Y is required"
• # cover-not-Z and # cover-only-Z, where:
  • not means "this code is not executed on this OS / platform / implementation"
  • only means "this code is only executed on this OS / platform / implementation"
  • Z may be any of the following values:
    • os.name: "posix", "nt", "java"
    • sys.platform: "aix", "android", "emscripten", "freebsd", "ios", "linux", "darwin", "win32", "cygwin", "wasi"
    • sys.implementation.name: "cpython", "ironpython", "jython", "pypy"

Note the comments are case-sensitive. Any amount of whitespace is allowed between the # and cover, including no space. The comments must always be followed by whitespace or end-of-line. If you put any other comments after these comments, for best forward compatibility it is strongly recommended you use another #, for example: some_code() # cover-only-win32 # only executed on Windows.
