  • Code Coverage tool package and functionality
    1 project | /r/emacs | 23 Feb 2021
    Been trying to find a complete code coverage utility package that can be used in Emacs and have only found cov as well as coverlay. They seem to both be a little incomplete and each have features that should be combined into one package. It looks like earlier on there were talks about merging the two but those talks did not go anywhere.

  • Sysexits – preferable exit codes for programs

    I do something very similar, though I read I should avoid codes 1 and 2 so my error codes start at 3: https://github.com/RPGillespie6/fastcov/blob/master/fastcov....

    That way automated CI pipelines (or whatever) can switch on the return code if needed rather than try to parse stderr
