report coverage in inst/

[jackolney]

Is it possible to get covr to report coverage of the inst/ directory?

I've checked previous issues and the support documentation but can't see any mention of this. I only ask as I have a large shiny app under development that sits in the inst/ directory so it is easily portable – the project is pretty big now and I'd love to have a handle on how much of the code base my unit tests are hitting.

Thanks in advance.

You can use file_coverage() to test files in '/inst' manually, but using covr with shiny applications has further issues, so is still not going to work for your usecase.

#277 remains open to track coverage of shiny applications.
