How can we exclude generated files?

[vivart]

tasks.withType<Test> {
    extensions.configure(kotlinx.kover.api.KoverTaskExtension::class) {
        generateXml = false
        generateHtml = true
        coverageEngine = kotlinx.kover.api.CoverageEngine.INTELLIJ
        includes = listOf("com\\.example\\..*")
        excludes = listOf("dagger\\.hilt\\..*", "com\\.example\\.settings\\.*FragmentDirections\\.*")
    }
}

I am able to exclude hilt package but FragmentDirections files are still showing in the report.

Hi! At the moment, the API of the plugin does not imply the exclusion of specific classes from the report. See #17
includes and excludes controls the instrumentation of the specified classes but not the report.

Duplicate #17

@shanshin Can you see what I'm doing wrong?

This works for me

tasks.withType<Test> {
    extensions.configure(kotlinx.kover.api.KoverTaskExtension::class) {
        isEnabled = true
        binaryReportFile.set(file("$buildDir/custom/result.bin"))
        includes = listOf("com\\.example\\..*")
        excludes = listOf(
            "dagger\\.hilt\\..*",
            "com\\.example\\.todo\\.databinding\\..*",
            "com\\.example\\.todo\\.di\\..*",
            "com\\.example\\.todo\\.ui\\.display\\..*",
            "com\\.example\\.todo\\.ui\\.edit\\..*",
            "com\\.example\\.settings\\..*",
        )
    }
}

Perhaps you have another test task in your project in which these classes are not excluded?
What is the content of the file build/tmp/koverHtmlReport/intellijreport.args after the build ?
The first few lines will list reports for completed test tasks

And what do you use as an coverage engine, JaCoCo or IntelliJ?

Hey guys, I have a similar issue. When I exclude some packages from kover it is indeed not taken into account in the percentages Class%, Block% and Line%. But because it is still part of the report, the overall coverage drops. This leads to an even more negative result than when I wouldn't exclude it. I use Kotlin 1.6.0 with Gradle 7.3. My configuration:

kover {
  isEnabled = true
  coverageEngine.set(kotlinx.kover.api.CoverageEngine.INTELLIJ)
  intellijEngineVersion.set(intellijVersion)
  generateReportOnCheck.set(true) 
}

tasks.test {
  extensions.configure(kotlinx.kover.api.KoverTaskExtension::class) {
    isEnabled = true
    binaryReportFile.set(file("$buildDir/reports/kover/result.bin"))
    includes = listOf("org\\.example\\.something\\.blabla\\..*")
    excludes = listOf(
      "org\\.example\\.something\\.blabla\\.controller\\..*"
    )
  }
}

@SimonedeGijt, please check in version 0.4.4.

[shanshin]

@Tihon-Ustinov, please, if the problem is reproduced in version 0.4.4, create a new one issue with a detailed description.

Just for that random soul coming across the same issue above version 0.4.4: I'm currently on version 0.6.0 and this doesn't work for me when I set the exclusions on module level. If I enable koverMerged and run the merged task and set the exclusions on project level this works.
