Feature Flags

Use Feature Flags to unlock more capabilities of Qodo Cover.

1. Diff-Based Coverage

Generate tests for changes made between branches, ensuring that new code is thoroughly tested without the need to run the entire test suite again.

• Options:

  • --diff-coverage: Enables diff-based test generation.

  • --branch=<branch_name>: Specifies a branch for comparison (default: main).

• Usage:

  python cover_agent/main.py --diff-coverage --branch=develop

  This example compares the current branch with develop, generating tests for new changes.

• Note: --diff-coverage cannot be used with --use-report-coverage-feature-flag.

2. Report-Based Coverage

Accept tests if they increase coverage for any file included in the report, regardless of the specific source file.

• Option:

  • --use-report-coverage-feature-flag: Activate this feature to accept any coverage increase.

• Usage:

  python cover_agent/main.py --use-report-coverage-feature-flag

  This example accepts tests that improve coverage anywhere in the report.

• Note: This flag is mutually exclusive with --diff-coverage.
