Bug in `Coverage` output
Written on 06.12.2023 19:25 by Andreas Zeller
Dear all,
In the coding demo this morning, I was confused by a feature in the Fuzzing Book Coverage
class; printing out coverage would put a prefix #
before covered lines rather than uncovered ones, as is the standard for coverage tools. This also was used inconsistently in the chapter. Only printing is affected; all other functionality is fine.
I have now changed the code and documentation such that a #
always marks uncovered code lines. However, this will only take effect in the next fuzzingbook package (1.2.2). So be aware of the issue when printing out Coverage
objects.
Enjoy Python! -- Andreas Zeller
