VS Code Go test coverage highlighting absent - go

I have 2 VS Code workspaces for Go development, in both cases using Go modules.
In the first workspace I get red/green bars in the gutter indicating test code coverage. All very nice.
In the second I cannot get the coverage to show. I know the tests are running (being run by VS Code), using go test -coverprofile... and I can check the output and it looks good. I originally had a multi-root workspace but I tried creating a new one with just a single root for the module I'm working on. I tried making sure the root path did not include symlinks.
I have spent several hours now looking at the differences between the settings at user, workspace and folder level for the two workspaces and cannot find any differences.
I would appreciate and suggestion on how to track down why the coverage highlighting is not showing.
I'm using go 1.13.15.
Update
I have updated to VSCode 1.51.1 and go 1.15.2. No change.
However, when I use a git diff then I do see the coverage in the gutter, just not in normal editor views

I had a similar issue - I migrated from dev machine #1 to dev machine #2, and had the exact same environment, software/tools versions, etc. Code coverage worked as expected on dev1, but not on dev2.
The critical difference was that, on dev2, I connected to a vscode workspace that was a symlink of my gopath, whereas on dev1, that path had been a proper directory. When I connected to my vscode workspace on dev2 to the underlying directory, and not the symlinked version, code coverage began to display correctly.

Code Covereage Overview in TFS different from .coverage file

We are trying to add visual studio coverage to our CI and so far it is working, but when I open the build, it displays a different coverage for the downloadable .coverage file.
This is how it looks in the overview:
and this is the downloaded .coverage file, when i open it in VS:
as you can see, the absolute covered lines and blocks are the same, but it seams that locally i have another number of overall lines and therefore the percentage is much higher. I am pretty sure that the local version is the correct one, as Resharper also covers 67%. I read, that building in release can change the coverage, I also built in debug/release locally and in the CI, but the coverage stays more or less the same (0.1 % off).
What we also do is, that we run our integrationtests on a different machine, so I had to copy the pdb files over to the other machine to be able to cover the tests over there. This also is working and the results get merged correctly but somhow the overall line/block count is still off.
We are using TFS 2017 and VS 2019.
Did anybody have the same problems? Is there a workaround without having to use a third party cover tool?

Automated tests in one project run in a different directory

I am running a set of tests for work that I inherited from the prior testing. Most of the tests run fine from the central bin directory. One project, however, always fails because the current binary location (as seen by checking the value at Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location) is showing up in temp directory like "TestResults\username_OPSNASJVJBX06 2016-02-18 11_40_06\Out\" off of the solution directory instead of in bin. I've tried recompiling. I've tried changing the project settings. I've tried modifying TestSettings.testsettings as per a handful of other people who've run into this issue. None of it is solving my problem. The most frustrating part is that this did work about two weeks ago, but I couldn't figure out what I'd done to fix it, and it later seemed to revert back to using this directory.
I have checked the project settings and not only are all of the test projects set to export to the ..\bin folder, but this test project's files show up there correctly.
As it turns out, the project was not set to use the TestSettings.testsettings. The path was absolute, not relative, so when I copied it to the test box, the link broke, quietly turning off use of TestSettings.testsettings.

How can I see which files have changes with Webstorm/GIT/OSX?

I have just started using Webstorm and OSX for my development with GIT. When I was using Windows I could use tortoise git and I would see little icons in Visual Studio and on the file system showing me the status of files such as /changed/same/ignored.
What I really want instead of the command line is to be able to see little status symbols on my files in 'finder'
WebStorm has VCS integration, it shows what files were changes, added or deleted in the Project view highlighting their names with different colors.
You could also see the changelists, use visual diff tool and more. I suggest watching this video on VCS integration in WebStorm and PhpStorm.
You could consider a shell like Prezto, illustrated in "ZSH/PREZTO GIT DIRTY PROMPT INFO".
Using this prompt setup, you can add information as to the current status of your repo:
Things like how long since the last commit, the current branch, whether I've added or modified files.
I also like to have two symbols, a green tick and a red lightning bolt visible as a general "you should commit your work" flag.

xcodebuild says does not contain scheme

I have a curios issue.
I have a project that I've worked on and always built from the XCode IDE, and it worked fine. Now I'm setting up Bamboo to build the project and as such am building it from the command line.
The issue is, if I check my code out of GIT and then use xcodebuild to build it it says that the scheme cannot be found, but if I open the project, it builds and if I then try to build it again from the command line with the same command, it works.
What magic is XCode doing when I open the project or am I doing something dumb, maybe excluding a file in my .gitignore that I shouldn't?
You are definitely on the right track with respect to the .xcscheme file -- I had this problem appear while setting up my own projects!
For posterity, or at least anyone getting here from a search, here are two versions of things -- the "I'm busy, so just the facts please" version and a more involved discussion and rationale. Both of these versions assume you are trying to build from a Workspace file; if you aren't then my apologies as this mostly applicable to workspace-based projects.
Condensed 'Fix-it' Version
The root cause is that the default behavior of Schemes is to keep schemes 'private' until they are specifically marked as shared. In the case of a command-line initiated build, the Xcode UI never runs and the xcoderun tool doesn't have its own cache of Schemes to work with. The goal is to generate, share, and commit the scheme you want Bamboo to run:
On a clean working copy of the code, open your Project's workspace.
Choose Scheme > Manage Schemes... from the Product Menu.
The list of Schemes defined for the project appears.
Locate the Scheme Bamboo is trying to run
Ensure the 'Shared' box is checked for that scheme and that the 'Container' setting is set to the Workspace and not the project file itself.
Click 'OK' to dismiss the Manage Schemes sheet.
A new .xcscheme file has been created in your project at WorkspaceName.xcworkspace/xcshareddata/xcschemes.
Commit this file to your repository and run a Bamboo build.
Deeper Discussion and Rationale
Xcode 4 introduced Workspaces and Schemes as a way to help try and tame some of the chaos that is inherent to dealing with the mechanics of wiring related Xcode projects, build targets, and build configurations together. The workspace itself has its own set of configuration data that describes each of the smaller 'boxes' of data it contains and acts as a skeleton for attaching .xcodeproj files and a set of shared configuration data that gets mirrored to each developer machine or CI system. This is both the power and pitfall of Workspaces -- there are 1) lots of ways in which one can get things configured 100% correctly, but put into the wrong container or 2) put into the correct container, but configured improperly thus rendering data inaccessible by other parts of the system!
The default behavior of Xcode 4 schemes is to automatically generate new schemes as projects are added to the Workspace file. Those of you that have added several .xcodeproj files may have noticed that your scheme list quickly becomes unruly especially as project files are added, then removed, and then readded to the same workspace. All schemes, autogenerated or manually created, default to being 'private' schemes visible only to the current user even when .xcuserdata files are committed with the project's data and configuration. This is the root cause of that cryptic build error Bamboo reports from xcodebuild -- Because Bamboo operates the build through the command line and not the Xcode UI, it doesn't have an opportunity for Schemes to get automatically generated and relies only on those that are defined in the workspace itself. Assuming you've configured Bamboo to build from a workspace using a command like this:
xcodebuild -workspace MyWorkspace.xcworkspace -scheme MyApplication -configuration Debug
xcodebuild goes looking for file <'scheme' Parameter Value>.xcscheme existing at <'workspace' Parameter Value>/xcshareddata/xcschemes.
Obviously there are bunches of ways in which one could configure both Bamboo and a workspace, so keep in mind that your unique configuration may not map 100% to what is presented here. The key takeaways:
Certain automated tasks the Xcode UI magically takes care of are not available via the Xcodebuild CLI.
You can attach scheme and build configuration data to many places in the 'container hierarchy' -- Make sure your data winds up in the right container (Workspace, Project, and/or Build Target)
Consider where in the container hierarchy the xcodebuild tool may be looking for configuration data; a great indicator of where it will start looking is based on the use of '-workspace' or '-project' arguments.
The 'Shared' box is already checked...now what?
I encountered this same issue on my own Bamboo instance; it turned out that the scheme that was committed in my repository was outdated and the latest version of the command line tools wasn't handling it gracefully. Since this existed previously, I took a look through the settings to make sure there wasn't anything glaringly custom about the scheme, deleted and recreated the scheme ensuring that I marked it as 'Shared', and recommitting the new .xcscheme file to the repository.
If everything looks good and rebuilding it doesn't solve the issue, double check that container setting -- it is really easy to get that scheme attached to the wrong container in the hierarchy!
Debug the issue like this:
xcodebuild -list
or if you are using a workspace (e.g. with pods)
xcodebuild -workspace MyProject.xcworkspace -list
If you scheme is not listed fix like so:
Most of the answers would suggest you to make your scheme shared using Xcode, then commit changes to repo. That works, of course, but only if you have access to source code and have rights to commit changes, and couple of other assumptions.
But there's a number of "what ifs" to consider
What if you just can't modify the Xcode project for some reason?
What if you create a new scheme automatically on CI server? This actually happens quite often. If you use test automation framework, like Calabash, you'll normally end up duplicating an existing target, which automatically duplicates a scheme as well, and the new scheme is not shared, even if the original scheme was.
Ruby & xcodeproj gem
I would recommend using xcodeproj Ruby gem.
This is a really cool open source tool that can help you to automate tons of Xcode-related tasks.
Btw, this is the gem used by CocoaPods to mess around with your Xcode projects and workspaces.
So install it
sudo gem install xcodeproj
Then write a simple Ruby script to re-share all the schemes, the gem has recreate_user_schemes method for that purpose
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require 'xcodeproj'
xcproj = Xcodeproj::Project.open("MyProject.xcodeproj")
xcproj.recreate_user_schemes
xcproj.save
It doesn't just copy scheme files form user's folder to xcshareddata/xcschemes, it also creates those files first by parsing the pbxproj file.
Ok I know its 2 minutes later but I found another stack overflow that says the scheme has to be set to shared... Where does Xcode 4 store Scheme Data?
One common reason for the scheme to be missing is forgetting to push the commits to the origin. If you get a missing scheme message, you should first verify the scheme is shared, then verify you have committed the changes AND pushed them to the origin server.
I had this error while implementing CI.The Question above is identical to my problems except I am using Gitlab's own CI tool.You can check if there is any such file in Bamboo.
I solved it by making some changes to gitlab-ci.yml file.
After you hav made your scheme availabe by sharing. In Xcode Go to Products>Scheme>Manage Scheme and check share to share.
Changes
Set absolute path everywhere.
eg.xcodebuild clean archive -archivePath /path/to/your/project/build/testDemo -scheme testDemo | xcpretty
here you need to change /path/to/your/project/ with your path and testDemo with your project name.
I faced this issue and even if some of the answers here actually provide the solution, I didn't find it very clear. So I will just add one more. In a nutshell how to share a schema from excode.
Navigate to Product > Scheme > Manage Schemes
You will then be shown a list of schemes, with each denoted as being shared or not. Just check the ones that you want to share (it may be different ones for dev and prod builds)

Got the same problem but during building with xcode as subproject of main one. Built subproject in xcode standalone - after that this error disappeared.
I want to add solution for my case related to this thread. This one is for you who clone existing project, with all the schemes you need are already being shared:
, with fastlane lanes correctly display all your lanes including all your schemes:
, but fastlane gym only show main schemes (not dev and test schemes):
The solution is to uncheck the shared option for schemes that not listed by fastlane gym and then check it again. It will generates .xcscheme for the schemes:
Now, if you check with fastlane gym, all the schemes will be listed:
Then you should commit those .xcshemes file to the repository, so other developer who clone the project will get the files.
For anyone with Xcode 11.4 trying to find "Shared" button on scheme, it's now moved into the individual scheme.
Select the scheme you want
Press "Edit"
Check the "Shared" box

Eclipse, import project but don't copy

I use Linux as primary operating system and I also have to work on a Windows virtual machine with Eclipse 3.7.
We're working with subversion but with Linux I'm happily using git-svn with Emacs+magit, which works great.
So I would like to be able to work on the same code from both OS, and only do the real version control management on Linux.
So I had the following thought:
1. share the directory with virtualbox
2. create the projects pointing to the shared directory
Well that doesn't work, because the dumb thing wants to copy everything.
So I tried to use virtual folders which seemed a good idea, but now some scripts are badly failing because they don't find the hard-coded paths.
So I don't know anymore what to try, any idea?
EDIT:
My last attempt in the last edit would not work, so I have a simpler question.
Given a git/svn/whatever repository checkout, why can't I simply tell to Eclipse create a project there without touching the files?
Is it so hard for Eclipse to create it's .project in that position?
And since there is clearly no "supported" way to do it, is there maybe any workaround?
From my experience, the stages are the following (using Indigo version):
1. Create new empty project
2. Click File->import->file system
3. in the import window import file system, check the files you want into the new project folder
4. Click on advanced in the import window and tick "create links in workspace"
The new project should contain links to the original directory.
Eclipse modifies and compiles source in its workspace. The first level of the workspace is the project directories, + a .metadata which is local only to that workspace instance. Traditionally, the workspace contains the projects it works on.
Eclipse also supports 2 linked modes. In one, when you create the project in the workspace you give it an absolute path to somewhere else on the file system. This is handy if you have eclipse projects in a git repo, for example.
In the other mode, you create the project in your workspace locally. Then you link your folders (source, resources, whatever) to somewhere else on the filesystem. This is useful for projects that don't want to save the eclipse specific files (.project, .classpath, etc) in their SCM.
You have to create a different workspace on each OS (there's no way around that). But you could create the projects in each workspace and link to the common location (I don't recommend it, but it would be do-able).
Same problem here and finally got a solution!
1) clone your repo but not directly to your workspace, in my case I used workspace2 instead of workspace.
2) On eclipse, import all the projects on workspace2, but don't mark the "copy files to workspace", so the source code is left on workspace2.
3) On git you will see changes appeared, on project.options files (only file date is changed) and in .path files (some lines changed its order). As all of them are irrelevant changes, reset the local branch discarding those changes.
Thats all, git sees no more changes and eclipse open the files properly!
I ran into a weird problem worth commenting here: after importing i went to "git gui" to see changes, and the first file changed was a "project.options" file that only changed its date but the diff was empty (as the content was unchanged). There is a bug on git that makes git gui enter on an infinite loop: while it detect changes on file and diff is empty, a rescan is performed, then the same change is detected and enter on a rescan loop.
There is a patch to solve this, but it was easier just to add a silly comment on that only file (not in all your project.options) and then "git gui" was happy again and i could reset the changes on the branch.
