"Erase" still needed in 4.2 · Issue #510 · nedbat/coveragepy (original) (raw)

Originally reported by Michał Bultrowicz (Bitbucket: Butla, GitHub: Butla)

If I understand http://nedbatchelder.com/blog/201607/coveragepy_42.html correctly, then running "run" and then "combine" (I'm running parallel tests) should properly detect loss of test coverage, right? Because they shouldn't look at the old .coverage by default.

But at the moment I still need to run "erase" to get rid of the old results before running the tests.

Here's my full tox.ini: https://github.com/butla/PyDAS/blob/a8c76d3221447fb34af60f5d03b18df52286ed4c/tox.ini
