installed on your local machine, you should be able to generate an html file locally using coverage html
. You can then open the file using a browser.
To install coverage
See note at end of previous using coverage video Teacher's Notes:
Installing coverage.py
pip install coverage
Using coverage.py
Make sure you test file can be run from the command line without the -m unittest argument.
coverage run tests.py
Generate a report
coverage report or coverage report -m if you want the missed lines.

To open a file in Chrome, try one of the following:
- Drag the file into Google Chrome from your computer's desktop or folder. Your cursor displays a little + sign if the action is successful.
- Type the location, also known as the path, of the file in the address bar, then press Enter.
- Try these keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl+O (Windows and Linux); ⌘+O (Mac)

11,747 PointsThat's an excellent answer, and it completely works for me, thanks Chris! Just one follow-up Q: when I run this in my terminal...
python -m http.server
... how do I quit it? It appears the usual CTRL+D isn't responding
