Coverage depends on formatting of hash

[rachelober]

For one of our models we needed an elaborate hash.

Ex:
FLAT_PAGES = {
"page1" => {
:lie => "content"
},
"page2" => {
:lie => "content",
:css => "content"
},
"page3" => {
:lie => "content",
:css => ["content1", "content2"],
"contact-us" => {
:lie => "contact",
:css => "aspen"
},
"trade-program" => {
:lie => "classic_trade_program",
:css => ["aspen", "aspen_wide", "aspen_sponsors"]
}
}
}

Coverage would show incomplete for the hash even though we knew everything in the hash was being used through our tests - except for the first entry in the hash, everything else shows up as red.

We needed to modify the hash like so to make it 100%:

FLAT_PAGES = {
"page1" => {
:lie => "content"},
"page2" => {
:lie => "content",
:css => "content"},
"page3" => {
:lie => "content",
:css => ["content1", "content2"],
"contact-us" => {
:lie => "contact",
:css => "aspen"},
"trade-program" => {
:lie => "classic_trade_program",
:css => ["aspen", "aspen_wide", "aspen_sponsors"]}}}

This is really annoying me too - we shouldnt have to choose between accurate coverage metrics and clean code.

Indeed, I also have come across this problem many times and I too agree that we should be able to write code how we see fit and rcov should be able to determine the actual amount of coverage.

Ditto - and thanks for the "fix" this was really bugging me.

I have also just been bitten by this issue.

+1 for DanielHeath's comment about not having to choose between accurate coverage metrics and clean code.

This is an issue with multiline processing. There are about 6 issues here that all stem from the same source. Once those are fixed, all of these issues will be resolved.
