NAME
xccov - view Xcode coverage data in human-readable or machine-parseable format.
SYNOPSIS
xccov view [--only-targets | --files-for-target target_name | --functions-for-file name_or_path]
[--json] report.xccovreport
xccov view [--file-list | --file path] archive.xccovarchive
DESCRIPTION
When tests are run with code coverage enabled, Xcode generates two files that contain its representa-
tion of coverage data. These are the coverage report, with extension xccovreport, and the coverage
archive, with extension xccovarchive. The coverage report contains line coverage percentages for each
target, source file, and function/method that has coverage information. The coverage archive contains
the raw execution counts for each file in the report. Using xccov, the contents of these files can be
viewed in either human-readable or machine-parseable format. These files are located in the
'Logs/Test' subdirectory of your Xcode project's DerivedData subfolder. Additionally, if the -result-
BundlePath flag is passed to xcodebuild(1), copies of the files are placed in the results bundle.
OPTIONS
--only-targets
Only view the list of targets.
--files-for-target target_name
Only view the source files in the target(s) with the given name.
--functions-for-file name_or_path
Only view the functions/methods for the file(s) with the given name or path. If supplying a
path, note that this is the path to the file when the coverage report was created, and the
file need not exist on disk.
--json View the data in JSON format (default is human readable text).
--file-list
When viewing an archive, list all of the files for which the archive contains coverage infor-
mation.
--file path
View the line and subrange execution counts stored in the archive for the file with the given
path. Note that this is the path to the file when the archive was created, and the file need
not exist on disk.
EXAMPLES
View all the data in a coverage report in human readable format:
xccov view C4518BEA-E0C1-4810-AFF9-23749EE19738.xccovreport
