Module-specific report filters are ignored in merged project report

[tonykolomeytsev]

Hello! I use kover in multimodule android project for generating reports for single modules and for the whole project (aggregated project report). The project contains both Android and JVM submodules.

When I run :koverHtmlReport, I get the aggregated HTML report with only filtering rules from root build.gradle. But specific rules from the subprojects' build.gradle are ignored. Is it expected behavior?

Kover 0.8.0

Yes, this is the expected behavior.

The block kover { reports { ... } } configures only those Kover tasks that are located in the same module in which this config is specified.

So, if you specify filters in the root project, then these filters will affect only the result of the :koverHtmlReport task, if you specify filters in subproject child, then of the :child:koverHtmlReport task, etc.

If you are using the root project to aggregate coverage reports (create a merged report), then you need to configure the block kover { reports { ... } } only in the root project.

Okay. Anyway thanks for the quick response. I will try to implement desired behavior myself
