go-bcov

go-bcov is a tool to calculate branch coverage from Go coverage reports.

It works by reading the coverage file generated by go to get the line coverage and then concurrently parses the package AST to understand which branches have been covered. Both if and switch statements are supported.

The coverage file is read from standard input and the report is generated to standard output.
