Developers in need of a configuration library solution providing automatic merging of coverage across test suites
About SimpleCov
SimpleCov is a code coverage analysis tool for Ruby. It uses Ruby's built-in Coverage library to gather code coverage data, but makes processing its results much easier by providing a clean API to filter, group, merge, format, and display those results, giving you a complete code coverage suite that can be set up with just a couple lines of code. SimpleCov/Coverage track covered ruby code, gathering coverage for common templating solutions like erb, slim, and haml is not supported. In most cases, you'll want overall coverage results for your projects, including all types of tests, Cucumber features, etc. SimpleCov automatically takes care of this by caching and merging results when generating reports, so your report actually includes coverage across your test suites and thereby gives you a better picture of blank spots. SimpleCov must be running in the process that you want the code coverage analysis to happen on.

UndercoverCI
Actionable test coverage for Ruby and GitHub. Checks and insights to help your team ship healthy code while saving time on PR reviews. Stop focusing on getting to 100% test coverage. Reduce pull request defects by telling when the changed code is untested before it's deployed to production. The CI server runs tests and uploads coverage data to UndercoverCI. That's the only required post-install setup step! We scan the PR diff and verify local test coverage for each updated class, method, and block because an absolute percentage check is not enough. Reveal untested methods and blocks, find unused code paths, and improve your test suite. Install UndercoverCI's hosted GitHub App or explore the Ruby gems family. Fully-featured GitHub App code review integration with quick setup for your organization. The UndercoverCI project and related Ruby gems are entirely open-source and free to use locally and in your CI/CD workflows.

NCover
NCover Desktop is a Windows application that helps you collect code coverage statistics for .NET applications and services. After coverage is collected, Desktop displays charts and coverage metrics in a browser-based GUI that allows you to drill all the way down to your individual lines of source code. Desktop also allows you the option to install a Visual Studio extension called Bolt. Bolt offers built-in code coverage that displays unit test results, timings, branch visualization and source code highlighting right in the Visual Studio IDE. NCover Desktop is a major leap forward in the ease and flexibility of code coverage tools. Code coverage, gathered while testing your .NET code, shows the NCover user what code was exercised during the test and gives a specific measurement of unit test coverage. By tracking these statistics over time, you gain a concrete measurement of code quality during the development cycle.

Coverlet
It works with .NET Framework on Windows and .NET Core on all supported platforms. Coverlet supports coverage for deterministic builds. The solution at the moment is not optimal and need a workaround. If you want to visualize coverlet output inside Visual Studio while you code, you can use the following addins depending on your platform. Coverlet also integrates with the build system to run code coverage after tests. Enabling code coverage is as simple as setting the CollectCoverage property to true. The coverlet tool is invoked by specifying the path to the assembly that contains the unit tests. You also need to specify the test runner and the arguments to pass to the test runner using the --target and --targetargs options respectively. The invocation of the test runner with the supplied arguments must not involve a recompilation of the unit test assembly or no coverage result will be generated.

DeepCover
Deep Cover aims to be the best coverage tool for Ruby code. More accurate line coverage, and branch coverage. It can be used as a drop-in replacement for the built-in Coverage library. It reports a more accurate picture of your code usage. In particular, a line is considered covered if and only if it is entirely executed. Optionally, branch coverage will detect if some branches are never taken. MRI considers every method defined, including methods defined on objects or via define_method, class_eval, etc. For Istanbul output, DeepCover has a different approach and covers all def and all blocks. DeepCover doesn't consider loops to be branches, but it's easy to support them if needed. Even after DeepCover is required and configured, only a very minimal amount of code is actually loaded and coverage is not started. To make it easier to transition for projects already using the builtin Coverage library deep-cover can inject itself into those tools.
