[Cobertura-devel] Code coverage problem with Cobertura 2.1.1, PowerMock 1.5.2, and Java 7

[Chris V. <cv...@me...>]

Hi all,

I have a Maven-based project where I'm using Cobertura 2.1.1 via the
Cobertura Maven Plugin 2.7.  Tests are being run using PowerMock 1.5.2
(Junit 4.11) and Java 1.7.0_80.  The tests are running just fine, but one
class appears to have 0% line coverage even though the class' tests are
being executed.

...

Tests run: 16, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0, Time elapsed: 0.412 sec

The <build> section from pom.xml is:

                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

After playing with this for awhile now, I'm at a bit of a loss for what to
do next to continue debugging.  The TimeUtils class is showing up in the
cobertura.ser file, it's being executed, etc.  Any guidance that you can
provide would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Chris
