Run test coverage report using Kover/Gradle and create test improvement plan document

  • Works in 3 steps: Run coverage report → Run analysis script → Create improvement document
  • Tasks that involve Test coverage
  • SKILL.md covers Steps, Output Format and After Completion
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Coverage Kover Gradle is an agent skill from jvm-skills/jvm-skills. Run test coverage report using Kover/Gradle and create test improvement plan document

Its SKILL.md is about 300 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Testing & QA, covering Test coverage. It works with Gradle. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Test coverage

Example prompts

  • “/coverage-kover-gradle”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Run coverage report
  2. Run analysis script
  3. Create improvement document

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c6d477f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash and markdown).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Coverage Kover Gradle loads about 301 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 27 tokens; SKILL.md has 63 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~27
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~301

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Coverage Analysis Skill

Run test coverage and generate improvement plan.

Steps

  1. Run coverage report

    bash
    ./gradlew -Pplaywright.headless=true koverXmlReport
  2. Run analysis script

    bash
    kotlin scripts/coverage-analysis.main.kts
  3. Create improvement document Create docs/dev/YYYY-MM-DD_test-improvements.md with:

    • Current coverage %
    • Packages below 50% coverage
    • Priority classes needing tests (0-30% coverage)
    • Specific test cases to write for top 5 priority classes
    • Test patterns/examples from existing tests

Output Format

markdown
# Test Improvement Plan - {date}

**Current Coverage: X%**

## Priority Packages
| Package | Coverage |
|---------|----------|
| core.x  | X%       |

## Priority Classes
1. **ClassName** (X%) - path/to/Class.kt
   - Test case 1
   - Test case 2

## Next Steps
- [ ] Create XTest.kt
- [ ] Create YTest.kt

After Completion

Open the created document in IntelliJ:

bash
