is there a way to get functions coverage column like in Lcov?

[DamianoBaroneSky]

Hi,
Gcov works well, but when I generate the html I can see line coverage and branch coverage. However, I would like to have Functions column like in LCOV. is there a way to change the yml to create function column? basically show how many function are hit in the test?

Hi, @DamianoBaroneSky. There certainly should be this option. I see in the history of gcovr development that users asked for something like this years ago referencing its availability in Lcov. I also see that it was eventually implemented. However, so far, I cannot find the necessary setting. Once we do figure this out we'll probably get it added as a default to the GCov plugin configuration. I think it's quite a safe bet that Ceedling users would generally want this in an HTML report produced by a coverage plugin.

By all means, please feel free to dig through the gcovr documentation. If you find the option — I'm 97% sure it's there — please post it here. We can provide guidance on how to add it to your configuration (if possible) and get it incorporated into the plugin.

I am using gcovr 7.2 with a Ceedling prerelease from a few days ago and there is

• line
• branch
• function
  coverage shown.

With respect to ceedling config (project.yml) it was a zero configuration thing and just worked out of the box.
