sundgren 0.1.2

Sundgren is Swedish for "sound branch". Given a repo, a base ref and a patch (usually one that changes tests), it answers: what happened to source coverage because of this patch?

It runs a coverage command on the base tree and on the patched tree (git worktrees), diffs the two lcov files with line numbers mapped through the patch, and writes a JSON report (sundgren.delta/1) or a text summary.

Install

uv tool install sundgren      # or: pipx install sundgren

Sundgren never imports coverage or pytest itself. They run as commands in your project's environment: {python} is the python on your PATH (or python3), override with --python.

Python

sundgren run --patch skip_divide.patch                 # preset "pytest" is picked from pyproject.toml
sundgren run --patch p.patch --base main --format text

The pytest preset runs coverage run --branch -m pytest <selected tests> then coverage lcov. It only runs the test files the patch touches; if the patch touches conftest.py, any other .py file or pytest config, it runs everything. Override with --tests tests/test_x.py ....

• Set [run] source = <your package> in .coveragerc, so never-imported files are reported.
• Editable installs measure your main checkout, not the worktree. Sundgren detects this and exits 1; fix with --env PYTHONPATH={worktree}/src.

Rust

sundgren run --patch ignore_divide.patch                          # cargo-llvm-cov
sundgren run --patch ignore_divide.patch --preset cargo-tarpaulin
sundgren run --patch p.patch --tests divide                       # name filters, passed after --

Each run uses its own CARGO_TARGET_DIR, so both sides build from scratch. Function names are stored mangled.

Any language: --cmd

Anything that writes lcov works:

sundgren run --patch p.patch \
  --cmd "npx jest --coverage --coverageReporters=lcov --coverageDirectory={out}" \
  --lcov "{out}/lcov.info"

Placeholders: {python}, {out} (per-run output dir), {worktree}, {lcov}, {junit}, {tests}. A token that is exactly {tests} expands to one argv entry per selected test (none if nothing is selected). --shell runs commands through /bin/sh -c. --junit TEMPLATE adds test outcomes to the report. --env K=V sets (templated) environment variables.

Custom presets go in sundgren.toml ([presets.<name>]) or [tool.sundgren.presets.<name>] in pyproject.toml, with the same keys as src/sundgren/lang/python/presets.toml. sundgren presets lists them.

Other commands

sundgren diff base.lcov patched.lcov --patch p.patch --base-root A --patched-root B
sundgren ingest coverage.lcov --root .        # normalized snapshot as JSON

Options shared by run and diff: --format json|text, -o OUT, --full (include unchanged lines, functions and tests), --counts (hit-count changes on lines that stayed hit), --repeat N (run only; lines whose status varies across runs are reported as flaky).

Exit codes: 0 ok, 1 tool or run failure, 2 usage error, 3 patch doesn't apply.

Report

files[].lines[].category is one of lost, gained, new_hit, new_miss, deleted_hit, deleted_miss, kept_hit, kept_miss, unmeasured (genhtml: LBC, GBC, GNC, UNC, DCB, DUB, CBC, UBC). Functions are went_dark, lit_up, partial_loss, partial_gain, mixed, unchanged, added or removed. tree rolls the line stats up per directory. Schema: src/sundgren/core/report/delta.schema.json.

Versioning

Sundgren follows SemVer. The public API is the CLI (commands, flags, exit codes), the report schema, the preset / sundgren.toml format and the built-in preset names. The Python modules are internal.

Before 1.0, a breaking change bumps the minor version and anything else the patch version. The report schema has its own version, sundgren.delta/N; N goes up on a breaking schema change. Changes are listed in CHANGELOG.md.

Development

uv sync                       # dev env in .venv
uv run pytest
uv run coverage run -m pytest && uv run coverage report   # line coverage
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .
uv run mypy

To release, run uv version --bump patch (or minor), move the Unreleased entries in CHANGELOG.md to a new ## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD section with its link, check with uv run tools/release.py check vX.Y.Z, then push a vX.Y.Z tag.

Layers: core (no languages, no subprocesses) ← run (worktrees, command templates) ← lang (presets, selectors, symbolizers). Only cli.py imports lang. tests/unit/test_layering.py enforces this. See DECISIONS.md for choices the spec left open.
