## What it does

The skill covers Bun's built-in coverage reporting, which needs no extra dependencies. It walks through `bun test --coverage`, the `bunfig.toml` settings, and how to read the output table with per-file function and line percentages plus uncovered line numbers.

Reporters get their own section. `text` prints the console table, `lcov` writes `coverage/lcov.info` for CI tools, `json` produces `coverage/coverage.json`. Thresholds come from `--coverage-threshold` or per-metric keys in `bunfig.toml`: lines, functions, branches. File exclusions go through `coverageIgnore`.

CI gets a GitHub Actions example that uploads lcov to Codecov. One thing to watch: without `coverage = true` in `bunfig.toml` or an explicit `--coverage-reporter=lcov`, your pipeline gets no report at all — worth checking the config before the first run. The skill suggests starting at a 60% threshold and raising it over time.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add secondsky/claude-skills --skill bun-test-coverage -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/bun-test-coverage/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add secondsky/claude-skills --skill bun-test-coverage -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add secondsky/claude-skills --skill bun-test-coverage -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install secondsky/claude-skills bun-test-coverage
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add secondsky/claude-skills --skill bun-test-coverage -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/secondsky/claude-skills --path plugins/bun/skills/bun-test-coverage
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add secondsky/claude-skills --skill bun-test-coverage -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/secondsky/claude-skills/tree/HEAD/plugins/bun/skills/bun-test-coverage/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- turn on coverage in Bun without adding packages
- produce an lcov report for Codecov upload
- set a minimum threshold and fail the build below it
- keep test files and fixtures out of the numbers
- locate uncovered lines by their numbers in the table

## Example prompts
- run the tests with coverage and list the uncovered lines
- set up bunfig.toml with an 80% line threshold and the lcov reporter
- add a coverage step to GitHub Actions and upload lcov to Codecov

# Bun Test Coverage

Bun has built-in code coverage reporting without additional dependencies.

## Enabling Coverage

```bash
# Enable coverage
bun test --coverage

# With threshold (fail if below)
bun test --coverage --coverage-threshold 80
```

## Configuration in bunfig.toml

```toml
[test]
coverage = true
coverageThreshold = 0.8  # 80% minimum
coverageDir = "./coverage"

# Patterns to ignore
coverageSkipTestFiles = true
```

## Coverage Output

```
------------------|---------|---------|-------------------
File              | % Funcs | % Lines | Uncovered Line #s
------------------|---------|---------|-------------------
All files         |   85.71 |   89.23 |
 src/index.ts     |  100.00 |  100.00 |
 src/utils.ts     |   75.00 |   82.35 | 23-25, 41-43
 src/api.ts       |   80.00 |   85.00 | 67, 89-92
------------------|---------|---------|-------------------
```

## Coverage Reporters

```bash
# Default console output
bun test --coverage

# Generate lcov report
bun test --coverage --coverage-reporter=lcov

# Multiple reporters
bun test --coverage --coverage-reporter=text --coverage-reporter=lcov
```

### Available Reporters

| Reporter | Output |
|----------|--------|
| `text` | Console table (default) |
| `lcov` | `coverage/lcov.info` for CI tools |
| `json` | `coverage/coverage.json` |

## Coverage Thresholds

Set minimum coverage requirements:

```bash
# Fail if coverage < 80%
bun test --coverage --coverage-threshold 80

# Per-metric thresholds in bunfig.toml
```

```toml
[test]
coverage = true
coverageThreshold = {
  lines = 80,
  functions = 75,
  branches = 70
}
```

## Excluding Files

```toml
[test]
coverage = true

# Skip test files from coverage
coverageSkipTestFiles = true

# Patterns to exclude
coverageIgnore = [
  "**/*.test.ts",
  "**/fixtures/**",
  "**/mocks/**"
]
```

## CI Integration

### GitHub Actions

```yaml
- name: Run tests with coverage
  run: bun test --coverage --coverage-reporter=lcov

- name: Upload coverage to Codecov
  uses: codecov/codecov-action@v5
  with:
    files: ./coverage/lcov.info
```

### Output Directory

```bash
# Custom output directory
bun test --coverage --coverage-dir=./reports/coverage
```

## Programmatic Coverage

```typescript
import { test, expect } from "bun:test";

// Get coverage data programmatically
const coverage = Bun.coverage;

// Access after tests complete
process.on("exit", () => {
  console.log(coverage.getCoverageData());
});
```
