Do you consider test coverage in projects? How is it organized?

Answer from AI

Test coverage is considered an important indicator of code quality, but not an end in itself. In projects, I usually organize coverage as follows:

  • Use tools to measure coverage (for example, built-in Go go test -cover)
  • Set a minimum coverage threshold for new features to prevent quality degradation
  • Focus on covering critical and complex parts of the code, business logic
  • Write both unit tests and integration tests to cover different levels
  • Analyze coverage reports and add tests for important but uncovered parts

Example of running tests with coverage in Go:

go test ./... -coverprofile=coverage.out
 go tool cover -html=coverage.out

Thus, coverage helps control quality and reduce the risk of errors.
