    Code coverage tools are a great way to improve the code quality, but there are a lot of tools that require a paid license to use it like dotCover, the Enterprise version of Visual Studio or Visual Studio extensions. After some research, I found out that two free tools combined can generate code coverage reports. The first tool is called Coverlet which generates the code coverage as I wanted and it's also working with .NET Framework. Essentially is creating an XML report file that covers the lines, branches, and methods. And the second tool is ReportGenerator which is used for parsing the generated XML and expose the data in a friendly format.
