PH2140: Avoid ExcludeFromCodeCoverage

Analyzer	AvoidExcludeFromCodeCoverageAnalyzer
CodeFix	Yes
Severity	Error
Enabled By Default	Yes

Introduction

Avoid using the ExcludeFromCodeCoverage attribute, as this manipulates the code coverage measurements in an way that is not visible in the code coverage report.

How to solve

Remove the attribute.

Example

Code that triggers a diagnostic:

using System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis;
class BadExample
{
    [ExcludeFromCodeCoverage]
    public void BadMethod()
    {
        return;
    }
}

And the replacement code:

class GoodExample
{
    public void GoodMethod()
    {
        return;
    }
}

Configuration

This analyzer does not offer any special configuration. The general ways of suppressing diagnostics apply.
