[Cobertura-devel] cobertura-check doesn't fail my build

[Chris B. <cb...@gm...>]

Hey all,

Wonderful job with Cobertura. I'm loving it.

I'm about to turn a new test-driven project loose on my fellow developers,=
=20
and I want to make sure that coverage stays up where it should be. I'm usin=
g=20
cobertura-check as documented and it does print messages when coverage is=
=20
lower than the specified threshold, but it doesn't fail the build as=20
expected. Is this a bug?

Example:

build.xml:

<target name=3D"coverage-check">
<cobertura-check branch=3D"90" line=3D"90">
<regex pattern=3D"registry.*" branch=3D"90" line=3D"90" />
</cobertura-check>
</target>
=20
invocation:

cbeams@cbeams:~/work/CobainMigration/registry>$ ant coverage-check
Buildfile: build.xml

coverage-check:
[cobertura-check] Cobertura 1.2

[cobertura-check] registry.Script line coverage rate of: 87.1% (required:=

90.0%)

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 2 seconds
=20

Again, the expected result would be that the build fails in this situation.

Thanks much!
