Using Coverage.jl with TravisCI

Using Coverage.jl with Coveralls.io?

1. Enable Coveralls.io for your repository. If it is public on GitHub and you are using using TravisCI, this is all you need to do. If this isn't the case, please submit an issue, and we can work on adding additional functionality for your use case.
2. You must be using Julia 0.3 or higher, which added the --code-coverage command line argument.
3. Use the command line option when you run your tests
   • Either with something like julia --code-coverage test/runtests.jl, or
   • with something like julia -e 'Pkg.test("MyPkg", coverage=true)'
4. Add the following to the end of your .travis.yml file. This line downloads this package, collects the per-file coverage data, then bundles it up and submits to Coveralls. Coverage.jl assumes that the working directory is the package directory, so it changes to that first (so don't forget to replace MyPkg with your package's name!

after_success:
- julia -e 'cd(Pkg.dir("MyPkg")); Pkg.add("Coverage"); using Coverage; >Coveralls.submit(Coveralls.process_folder())'

If you make it through that, consider adding your package to the list below. Alternatively, if you get >stuck see on the examples below or checkout Coveralls troubleshooting page.

Any idea why the coverage reports stays unknown ...? Some projects are using PkgEval also, see https://github.com/IainNZ/PackageEvaluator.jl

@ahojukka5 I don't know. I have tried everything. I did get it working even for my empty generated package: https://github.com/TeroFrondelius/FooBar.jl

Here is a good list of badges for Python:

@ovainola please try to make this coverage to work.

@TeroFrondelius I located the problem. Seems that all the tests builded fine but when it was time to sent data to Coveralls.io, Coverage.jl crashed with greek symbols which were in the shape_functions.jl file. I deleted all the greek symbols and now it's working.

This might need another decision making. Should we avoid using non-ascii, i.e. utf-8 characters in our coding style? (Related to coding style guide.)

There seems to be a choice (at least for Python): http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage/

Are we having some kind of situation. Coverage dropped to zero.
