Azure DevOps MultiPlatform pipeline

[niphlod]

Hi,
I have a pipeline that runs a .NET test suite in two stages, one using windows and the other one using linux.

I thought I could "park" coverage.cobertura.xml files on the first stage, and then on the second one download the reports and generate reports in a single sweep, using something like

-reports:/home/vsts/work/_temp/**/coverage.cobertura.xml;/home/vsts/work/1/coverreports/**/*coverage.cobertura.xml

where /home/vsts/work/_temp/**/coverage.cobertura.xml is "the current stage" (the linux one) and /home/vsts/work/1/coverreports/**/*coverage.cobertura.xml is the output from the previous one (the windows one).

Issue here is that stage with windows has win paths on cobertura.xml files, so reportgenerator fails to find the files to build the report.

How can I generate a coverage report that builds upon both stages ?

Hi @niphlod,

ReportGenerator relies on the path information in the coverage files.
In your case you have to adjust the Windows paths from the first stage so that the files can be found in the Linux stage.

You can do this with a litte script before executing ReportGenerator.

Powershell example:

(gc "/home/vsts/work/1/coverreports/your/path/coverage.cobertura.xml") | % { $_ -replace "C:\Some\Windows\Path", "/home/some/linux/path" } | Out-File "/home/vsts/work/1/coverreports/your/path/coverage.cobertura.xml" -Encoding UTF8

The script is just an example. Please adjust the paths as needed in your scenario.
