jest-coverage-guard v2.2.21

Jest Coverage Guard

Check code coverage only in files you commit and/or change

Perfect use-case: enforcing test coverage for legacy untested code

Coverage quality guard will go over files you have changed and check if the file test coverage complies with defined threshold.

• Works in GitHub Actions and GitLab Pipelines
• In CI environment checks files found in commits containing featureNameRegExp in commit message
• Locally checks both commited files containing featureNameRegExp in commit message and uncommited files

Usage

1. Install jest-coverage-guard

   Install with npm:

   npm install jest-coverage-guard --save-dev

   Install with yarn:

   yarn add jest-coverage-guard --dev

2. Create config file (coverage.guard.config.json) in your project root folder:

   (optional: "excludeKeywords", "excludeFiles", "addedFilesQualityGate", "changedFilesQualityGate")

   {
     "appRootRelativeToGitRepo": "src",
     "excludeKeywords": [
       "// skip-coverage-check",
       "backbone",
       "class SomeUglyClass"
     ],
     "featureNameRegExp": {
       "body": "APP-[0-9]+",
       "flags": "g"
     },
     "excludeFiles": [ "\\-test.(js|ts)$", "\\.less$"],
     "addedFilesQualityGate": {
       "statements": 100,
       "branches": 100,
       "functions": 100,
       "lines": 100
     },
     "changedFilesQualityGate": {
       "statements": 80,
       "branches": 80,
       "functions": 80,
       "lines": 80
     }
   }

3. In your jest config file jest.config.json add jest-coverage-guard as a reporter: "reporters": ["default", "jest-coverage-guard"],

4. Make sure in your CI, you have process.env.CI is true, to check commited files

5. Run jest tests and see the output

Config options

• appRootRelativeToGitRepo - path to your application source code !important: this path should be relative to git repository root and not to CWD
• excludeKeywords - keywords that will be used to skip files from check. If a file contains one of the keywords the coverage check script will ignore it.

• featureNameRegExp - patterns to search commits by commit message. The script assumes that you are adding a prefix to the beginning of each commit message + this prefix should be in the branch name, for example branch "feature/PROJECT-A-add-button" is having commit messages like: "PROJECT-A: fixed type in btn"

  • body: regexp body that would match you issue name pattern, for example: "body": "POJECT-A-[0-9]+", or for multiple issue name patterns: "body": "(POJECT-A|POJECT-B)-[0-9]+".

  • flags: search flags, for example "flags": "g" will look for matches globally in branch name and in commit messages.

• excludeFiles - array of filename regexp bodies that should be ignored by check

• addedFilesQualityGate - config object where you specify quality gate for newly added files, defaults to:

{
  "statements": 100,
  "branches": 100,
  "functions": 100,
  "lines": 100
}

• changedFilesQualityGate - config object where you specify quality gate for changed files, defaults to:

{
  "statements": 80,
  "branches": 80,
  "functions": 80,
  "lines": 80
}

Why use it?

You can use this to fail your CI pipeline when code coverage in files you changed is not high enough.
This script should execute only after jest generated coverage report, so as jest custom reporter.
This script is able to check your committed and uncommitted files.

Locally the script will check coverage on all files that you have changed + committed files where commit message contains featureNameRegExp

In CI environment it will check changed files from commits containing featureNameRegExp in commit message

If for some reason, you want to exclude your file from coverage check, add a comment to your file with "skip-coverage-check", eg. // skip-coverage-check (it should be in excludeKeywords config).

How does it work:

• The script expects you to prefix each commit message eg: APP-12345: fixed typo in awesomefile.js

• The script expects you to prefix your branch name with same prefix that you will use in your commits, eg: patch/APP-12345_feature_one

1. Script gets the name of the current branch (config: featureNameRegExp)
2. Extracts the feature-prefix from the branch name eg. APP-12345 (config: featureNameRegExp)
3. Gets all commits that contain this feature-prefix in the commit message.
4. Gets all url's of the files you have changed in those commits.
5. Filters file URL's to get only app files (config: appRootRelativeToGitRepo) and skips files that contain exclude keywords (config: excludeKeywords).
6. Finds report for each file from jest coverage report object.
7. Compares the results with corresponding quality gate (config: changedFilesQualityGate or addedFilesQualityGate).
8. Adds covearge results to results table, adds failed coverage errors to the errors table.
9. Shows results
10. If error table contains errors - the script fails with exit code 1.
11. If error table contains errors but you are in --watch or --watchAll mode - script will not fail.

12. If error table contains no errors - script will succeed.

    	NEXT STEPS ONLY WHEN (`process.env.CI != true`):

13. Gets current git.status Object.

14. Gets all files that you have changed but not yet committed.
15. Gets file URL's and then does everything from step 6 to step 15.
