The goal of this component is to find what RSpec examples "cover" one or more lines of code of a Ruby project.

This is useful for example when you override methods of a parent product and you want to check what/how the specs treat the original lines.

Blog post introduction: https://nebulab.it/blog/reverse-coverage/

Add gem 'reverse_coverage' to your application's Gemfile and execute bundle.

Put the following code under you specs configuration:

require 'reverse_coverage' RSpec.configure do |config| config.before(:suite) do ReverseCoverage::Main.start end config.around do |e| e.run ReverseCoverage::Main.add(e) end config.after(:suite) do ReverseCoverage::Main.save_results coverage_matrix = ReverseCoverage::Main.coverage_matrix ReverseCoverage::Formatters::HTML::Formatter.new.format(coverage_matrix) end end

Run your specs, inspect the 'tmp/reverse_coverage.yml' file or open 'tmp/index.html' file.

To configure the base URL used to open a specific spec edit the generated 'tmp/settings.js' file. Without changes, the default behavior is to open files locally.

• file_filter: allows to set a lambda to filter what files belongs to the project. Example (to add before ReverseCoverage::Main.start line): ReverseCoverage::Main.config[:file_filter] = ->(file_path) { file_path.include? 'faked_project' }

Execute bundle exec rspec on the component root path, specs are based on an internal fake project.
