django-coverage-plugin 0.3.1

Django template coverage.py plugin

A coverage.py plugin to measure the coverage of Django templates.

Supported Python versions are 2.7 and 3.4. Supported Django versions are 1.4 through 1.8 alpha.

The plugin itself is pip installable:

$ pip install django_coverage_plugin

To run it, add this setting to your .coveragerc:

[run]
plugins =
    django_coverage_plugin

Then run your tests under coverage.py. It requires the latest coverage.py, so it may not work with other coverage-related tools such as test-runner coverage plugins, or coveralls.io.

You will see your templates listed in your coverage report alongside your Python modules.

What the? How?

The technique used to measure the coverage is the same that Dmitry Trofimov used in dtcov, but integrated into coverage.py as a plugin, and made more performant. I’d love to see how well it works in a real production project. If you want to help me with it, feel free to drop me an email.

The coverage.py plugin mechanism is designed to be generally useful for hooking into the collection and reporting phases of coverage.py, specifically to support non-Python files. I’ve also got a plugin for Mako templates, but it needs some fixes from Mako. If you have non-Python files you’d like to support in coverage.py, let’s talk.

Tests

To run the tests:

$ pip install -r requirements.txt
$ tox
