Command Line Tools

Use NCover’s NCover.Console and NCover.Reporting command line tools to measure, merge, analyze, and report code coverage.

NCover.Console – Code Coverage Measurement

NCover.Console is a command line tool that can be utilized to execute an application, Windows Service, or IIS application and gather coverage data from the execution.

Basic Usage

NCover.Console [NCover Parameters] <Program to Cover> [Program Parameters]

All parameters that do not start with // will be passed to the profiled application. So, for example, running

NCover.Console //log-file MyLog.log MyApp.exe /?

would run code coverage on the call

MyApp.exe /?

while outputting log information to the file MyLog.log in the current directory.
