Setup coverage in SonarQube

This should be straightforward. There is an example un LINUX using the gcovrtool here.

What exactly is coverage in SonarQube? What does it add beyond using gcov when running unit tests?

What exactly is coverage in SonarQube?

Hi John.

Good question. When you ask so directly, it's something that does not exist. SonarQube does not perform any coverage. It simply accepts coverage information. So indeed there would be no added value there. I guess I just wanted my panel to be more full at Sonar cloud for the sake of nothing more than completeness.
