Exclude or ignore iOS-only Compose UI tests from Kover HTML report

[talhatek]

Hey team 👋

I have a Compose Multiplatform project targeting Android and iOS.
My Compose UI tests currently run only on iOS (iosSimulatorArm64) because Android local tests don’t work for Compose UI yet.

When I execute ./gradlew koverHtmlReport, these iOS-only tests cause the build to fail, since Kover tries to instrument them even though they are not runnable on JVM.

What I’d like to do is:

Exclude or ignore these iOS-only tests from Kover instrumentation and reporting,

Is there a recommended way to handle iOS-only tests in a Compose Multiplatform project with Kover?

Thanks a lot for the amazing tool 🙏

Hi, to exclude some task from instrumentation you can add the required project script like this

kover {
    currentProject {
        instrumentation {
            disableForTestTasks.add("testTaskName")
        }
    }
}

I managed to ignore like this.

kover {
    reports {
        filters {
            excludes {
                classes.add("*Screen*")
            }
        }
    }
}
tasks.withType<Test> {
    filter {
        excludeTestsMatching("*ScreenTest*")
    }
}

Thanks.
