Coverex is an Elixir Coverage tool used by `mix`. It provides tables with overviews of
module and function coverage data, includings links to annotated source code files.

## Configuration
Coverex is completely configured via `mix.exs` of your project. To enable `Coverex`,
you add this line to your `mix.exs` file
test_coverage: [tool: Coverex.Task]
as part of the regular project settings. In addition to that, you need to add Coverex
to the dependencies of your project. Coverex is available via `hex.pm`, so you need only to
add this line to the dependencies in your `mix.exs` file:
{:coverex, "~> 1.2.0", only: :test}
For debugging purposes, the log level can be set as addition to the `tool` option. The default
value is `:error`. To set the log level to `:debug` you use this line in your `mix.exs` file:
test_coverage: [tool: Coverex.Task, log: :debug]
The usual log levels of `Logger` application of Elixir are available.
If you set the flag `coveralls: true` and you are running on `travis-ci`, the coverage information are sent to http://coveralls.io . An example configuration would be
test_coverage: [tool: Coverex.Task, coveralls: true]
## Running Coverex
If you have configured Coverex as described above you can run Coverex as a drop-in replacement
for the regular coverage mechanism of mix:
$> mix test --cover
The coverage reports are found in the `cover` directory or what you have configured as coverage directory
as explained in the docs of the `Mix.Tasks.Test` task.
