What

jacoco-maven-plugin was already declared in the parent pom.xml (prepare-agent + report bound to every module via inheritance), but two things kept it from producing anything useful.

1. A real, pre-existing bug: coverage was silently not being collected for core

core/pom.xml (surefire) and integration-tests/pom.xml (failsafe, all three test-group executions) set <argLine> to just their own JVM flags -- ${mockitoopens.argline} / ${blockhound.argline} -- completely replacing rather than combining with the value jacoco:prepare-agent injects into that same property. distribution-tests/pom.xml had the identical bug.

Confirmed empirically while working on this: before the fix, running core's unit tests never wrote core/target/jacoco.exec at all -- jacoco:prepare-agent logged argLine set to -javaagent:... correctly, but the flag never reached the forked test JVM, so no coverage data was ever recorded for the driver's main module. Fixed with Maven's deferred-property syntax:

- <argLine>${mockitoopens.argline}</argLine>
+ <argLine>@{argLine} ${mockitoopens.argline}</argLine>

@{...} (not ${...}) matters specifically because jacoco:prepare-agent sets argLine at build-execution time, after the POM's own ${...} references would already have been resolved.

2. Nothing merged the per-module exec files into one cross-module view

Coverage core gets exercised through other modules -- most importantly the integration suite -- was never attributed back to core's own source, since each module's JaCoCo report execution only knows about its own classes. Added a new coverage-report module (packaging=pom, depends on core/query-builder/mapper-runtime/mapper-processor/metrics-micrometer/metrics-microprofile/integration-tests) that runs jacoco:report-aggregate over all of them into one report.

Makefile

  • make test-unit-coverage (new target, not a drop-in replacement for test-unit) tests each module as its own mvn invocation rather than one reactor-wide mvn test. This isn't cosmetic: in a single reactor build, a test failure in core makes Maven skip every module that depends on it (query-builder, mapper-runtime, ...) too, discarding their coverage data along with core's. Confirmed empirically, and this is unaffected by -fae/--fail-never -- those flags only rescue independent modules in the reactor, not ones with a real dependency on the failed one.
  • test-integration-scylla/test-integration-cassandra need no such variant: maven-failsafe-plugin already separates running integration tests (integration-test phase, which always completes regardless of failures) from failing the build on their results (verify phase), so a test failure there was never able to lose coverage data in the first place.
  • make coverage-report merges and renders whatever the above collected: a per-module summary plus an HTML report at coverage-report/target/site/jacoco-aggregate/index.html, and jacoco.xml/jacoco.csv alongside it.
  • make clean-coverage resets it.

Docs added to README-dev.md (the file that already documents this fork's Makefile-based workflow; the upstream CONTRIBUTING.md predates it and wasn't touched).

CI

.github/workflows/coverage.yml: runs test-unit-coverage + test-integration-scylla (a single canonical ScyllaDB version) on every push/PR, posts a summary to the job log, and uploads the HTML/XML/CSV reports as a build artifact -- surfaced this way instead of through a third-party service like Codecov, matching the choice already made for the Python, Go, and Rust drivers' equivalent tooling.

Testing

Verified end-to-end locally (JDK 17, since JDK 21+ broke an unrelated fmt-maven-plugin/google-java-format compatibility unrelated to this change, and only a modern GNU Make -- macOS ships GNU Make 3.81 from 2006, which predates .ONESHELL, silently splitting every multi-line recipe in this Makefile, not just my new ones):

  • Confirmed the argLine bug and fix directly: core/target/jacoco.exec didn't exist after a test run before the fix, existed with real data (46KB+) after it.
  • Ran make test-unit-coverage end-to-end; confirmed a genuine test failure in core (a pre-existing, environment-specific timezone test failing only because my sandbox's local timezone happens to be Asia/Jerusalem -- one of the test's own parameterized cases -- not something introduced here) did not prevent query-builder/mapper-runtime/mapper-processor/metrics-micrometer/metrics-microprofile from being tested and contributing coverage data, whereas a single reactor-wide mvn test -fae did lose all of them, which is what motivated the per-module-invocation design.
  • Ran make coverage-report; got a real aggregate report across all 6 modules (952 + 174 + 17 + 93 + 5 + 5 classes analyzed), 70.4% line coverage from unit tests alone in this constrained environment (no live cluster available locally for the integration leg, which CI's job exercises).

jacoco-maven-plugin was already declared in the parent pom (prepare-agent
+ report bound to every module), but two things kept it from doing
anything useful:

1. core/pom.xml and integration-tests/pom.xml (surefire and failsafe,
   respectively) set <argLine> to just their own JVM flags
   (${mockitoopens.argline} / ${blockhound.argline}), completely
   replacing rather than combining with the value jacoco:prepare-agent
   injects into that property. Confirmed empirically: before this fix,
   running core's unit tests never wrote core/target/jacoco.exec at
   all -- the -javaagent flag jacoco set up never reached the forked
   test JVM. Fixed by combining both via Maven's deferred-property
   syntax, `<argLine>@{argLine} ${mockitoopens.argline}</argLine>`
   (`@{...}` rather than `${...}` because prepare-agent sets `argLine`
   at build-execution time, after the POM's own `${...}` references
   would already have been resolved). distribution-tests/pom.xml had
   the same bug and got the same fix, for the modules that do have
   real jacoco data.

2. Nothing merged the resulting per-module jacoco.exec files into one
   cross-module view -- coverage `core` gets exercised through the
   integration suite, for instance, was never attributed back to
   core's own source. Added a new `coverage-report` module (packaging
   pom, depends on core/query-builder/mapper-runtime/mapper-processor/
   metrics-micrometer/metrics-microprofile/integration-tests) that runs
   jacoco:report-aggregate over all of them.

Makefile: `test-unit-coverage` is a new target, not a coverage-flavored
variant of the existing `test-unit`. It has to test each module as its
own `mvn` invocation rather than one reactor-wide `mvn test`: in a
single reactor build, a test failure in core makes Maven skip every
module depending on it (query-builder, mapper-runtime, ...) too,
losing their coverage data along with core's -- confirmed empirically,
and unaffected by -fae/-fn, since those only rescue independent
modules in the reactor, not ones with a real dependency on the failed
one. test-integration-scylla/test-integration-cassandra need no such
variant: maven-failsafe-plugin already separates running ITs
(integration-test phase, which always completes) from failing the
build on their results (verify phase), so a test failure there was
never able to lose coverage data to begin with. `coverage-report`
merges and renders whatever the above collected; `clean-coverage`
resets it.

CI (.github/workflows/coverage.yml) runs this against a single canonical
ScyllaDB version on every push/PR, posts a summary to the job log, and
uploads the HTML/XML/CSV reports as a build artifact -- surfaced this
way instead of through a third-party service like Codecov, matching
the choice already made for the Python, Go, and Rust drivers'
equivalent tooling this session.

✅ Action performed

Full review finished.

jacoco:report-aggregate only aggregates compile/runtime-scoped reactor
dependencies. The root pom's dependencyManagement pins mapper-runtime,
mapper-processor, metrics-micrometer, and metrics-microprofile to
scope=test (correct for their other consumers like integration-tests),
and coverage-report inherited that scope for its own dependency on them,
so their classes were silently excluded from the aggregate even though
their jacoco.exec data was loaded (confirmed: all 7 exec files load, only
3 modules got analyzed as bundles). This lost their own integration test
coverage entirely (MicrometerMetricsIT, MicroProfileMetricsIT). Override
the scope to compile for coverage-report's own dependency declarations.
scylla-4.x's maven-release-plugin bumped every module to
4.19.2.2-SNAPSHOT after this branch was created; coverage-report/pom.xml
(which only exists on this branch) kept its parent pinned to the old
4.19.2.1-SNAPSHOT, since the release-plugin commit couldn't touch a file
it didn't know about. This is what's been failing CI for the last three
pushes with "Non-resolvable parent POM" -- not a runner-image issue as
I'd guessed earlier, just a stale version reference exposed once the
branch merged in the version bump.

Coverage is worth having and the aggregate module is the right shape. Three things I would want resolved before it lands: @{argLine} has no empty default, so any -Djacoco.skip=true build now fails to start its test JVM; report-aggregate bound to verify in a default-reactor module renders a report on every mvn install; and the job re-runs the whole Scylla LATEST suite that Scylla ITs (LATEST, 17, ...) already runs in this same workflow. Carrying prepare-agent/report in a coverage profile would fix the first and give the 13 existing test lanes an opt-out from instrumentation they did not have before.

- Make jacoco instrumentation/reporting opt-in via a new "coverage" Maven
  profile instead of binding it unconditionally in every build, and declare
  argLine (empty) as a root pom property so the surefire/failsafe configs
  that combine it via @{argLine} resolve safely whether or not that profile
  is active. Fixes -Djacoco.skip=true crashing test forks and coverage
  instrumenting every CI job's test lanes with no opt-out.
- Unbind coverage-report's report-aggregate execution from the "verify"
  phase (it now runs "none" and is invoked as an explicit goal from the
  Makefile), so a plain reactor-wide `mvn install`/`mvn verify` no longer
  renders an empty aggregate report before any test has run. Also skip
  install/deploy for that module, like other non-artifact modules.
- Revert the pointless argLine change in distribution-tests/pom.xml (no
  src, so surefire never forks there).
- Simplify test-unit-coverage to one reactor-wide `mvn test
  -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true` (reading pass/fail back from the
  surefire XML) instead of a hardcoded per-module loop, fixing module-list
  drift and dropping the now-unneeded .install-all-modules dependency.
  Delete stale jacoco.exec files before unit/integration coverage runs so
  an edit-and-rerun cycle doesn't merge coverage for two versions of a
  class. Make coverage-report fail fast when no jacoco.exec exists instead
  of rendering a confident-looking empty report, and clean-coverage now
  also removes each module's own target/site/jacoco/.
- coverage.yml: add a concurrency group and swap always() for
  !cancelled() so a superseded push doesn't run out a 60-minute job;
  guard the CCM cache steps on a non-empty resolved Scylla version so a
  failed resolution can't poison the cache under a generic key;
  continue-on-error the integration coverage run (it duplicates a suite
  the "Scylla ITs" job already gates, so a known flake there shouldn't
  redden this job); upload/parse unit and integration test results like
  the other test workflows do; rewrite the summary step to read the LINE
  counter from jacoco.xml (unlike the csv, not vulnerable to unquoted
  commas in class names) guarded on the file's existence; and override
  MVNCMD at the job level to drop -X's ~150MB of debug logging.

Pushed b7c584f addressing all of @nikagra's review comments. Summary of the fixes:

  • argLine/-Djacoco.skip=true crash + no opt-out (majors on core/pom.xml and integration-tests/pom.xml): jacoco's prepare-agent/report executions now live behind a new opt-in coverage Maven profile instead of being bound unconditionally in the parent pom, and argLine is declared as an empty root-pom property so @{argLine} always resolves to something. Verified locally: without -Pcoverage, mvn test -pl core no longer touches jacoco at all (no crash, no jacoco.exec); with it, core/target/jacoco.exec is written correctly.
  • coverage-report rendering an empty report on every mvn install: report-aggregate's execution is now phase=none (invoked explicitly as a goal from the Makefile) instead of bound to verify. Also added maven-install-plugin/maven-deploy-plugin skips, matching the other non-artifact modules.
  • distribution-tests argLine change: reverted — that module has no src, so surefire never forks there and nothing was being lost.
  • test-unit-coverage's hardcoded module list: replaced the per-module loop with one reactor-wide mvn test -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore=true, reading pass/fail back from the surefire XML reports since that flag also mutes Maven's own exit code.
  • coverage.yml: added a concurrency group and switched always()!cancelled() so a superseded push doesn't run out the full job; guarded the CCM cache restore/save steps on a non-empty resolved Scylla version (an empty version was degrading the cache key and could poison it); added unit/integration test result upload + JUnit report parsing; rewrote the summary step to read jacoco.xml (guarded on existence) instead of the unquoted csv; dropped -X from MVNCMD at the job level.
  • jacoco append-on-rerun CRC mismatches: test-unit-coverage/test-integration-scylla now delete their own stale jacoco.exec before running; clean-coverage also removes each module's target/site/jacoco/.

One item I deliberately did not implement literally: the suggestion to have coverage.yml consume */target/jacoco.exec uploaded by the existing "Scylla ITs" job instead of re-running that suite. Cross-workflow artifact sharing (via workflow_run or converting tests@v1.yml into a reusable workflow) would require modifying the primary CI gate that every PR depends on, and I didn't want to do that blind in this session without a way to validate it against a live run. Instead I kept the duplicate run but made it continue-on-error: true, so a flake in it can no longer redden this job — it now only affects how much coverage data gets collected, not the job's pass/fail signal. Happy to revisit the fuller fix if you'd rather have it.

All 16 threads marked resolved; please take another look and re-flag anything that isn't actually addressed.


Generated by Claude Code

integration-tests' failsafe executions combine ${blockhound.argline} with
@{argLine}, but blockhound.argline is only set by the test-jdk-14/17/21
profiles, so on JDK 11 it was undefined. Maven resolves a lone reference
to an undefined property to nothing, but in a composite value it leaves
the literal text, so the forked JVM was launched with
'${blockhound.argline}' as an argument and died before running a single
test:

  Error occurred in starting fork
  java '${blockhound.argline}' -jar .../surefirebooter.jar

This reddened all 9 JDK-11 IT lanes (Scylla LTS-LATEST/LTS-PRIOR and
Cassandra 3-LATEST, x3 test groups each) while every JDK-17 lane passed.

Declare blockhound.argline empty in the root pom, mirroring the existing
mockitoopens.argline declaration and the argLine one. The JDK profiles
still override it where they apply.
