Coverage

Coverage is a tool for risk management, not a score to maximize.

Philosophy

  • Aim for strong coverage on critical flows and high-change logic.
  • Use coverage to find untested branches (errors, fallbacks, edge cases).
  • Do not chase 100% on low-value code (tiny presentational wrappers, library glue).

What should have strong coverage

Typically high-value targets: - src/api/*/hooks/* and API utilities - src/pages/*/handlers/* and workflow orchestration helpers - src/utils/* and validation/normalization logic

Lower value to chase

  • tiny presentational components that mostly render MUI primitives
  • MUI wrapper components where behavior is in the library

How to run coverage locally

From the frontend/ directory: - npm test -- --coverage

Alternative (CI-like): - npx vitest run --coverage

Where reports live

Vitest writes reports to: - frontend/coverage/

Useful entry points: - frontend/coverage/index.html - frontend/coverage/lcov-report/index.html
