Does Visual Studio Code C++ Unit Test coverage?

Question

We have a C++ project we're developing on Linux with gcc. We'd like to use Visual Studio Code--if we can ever get it configured properly--but we can't if it won't meet our needs.

Does Visual Studio Code show C++ unit test coverage? For example, like how Eclipse shows code coverage of JUnit tests? Can it even be configured to run unit tests with Google Test, for example?

Answer 1

Code coverage reports seems to be available only in real Visual Studio Enterprise edition. For VS Code you can only utilize some command line utils, such as gcov.

Answer 2

Here's a link to Gcov Viewer plugin for vscode. that uses the output from gcc to Highlight the covered lines. and automate usage of e gcov .
