In this case I’m using two .cmd files I wrote and usually include in my development projects. The open-cover.cmd file recursively look for test assemblies and run opencover to generate an open-cover.xml report. The report-generator.cmd file take an open-cover.xml report as input and generate a coverage-report folder with a human friendly html report ready to be deployed to a web server. ...
