roveralls runs coverage tests on a package and all its sub-packages. The coverage profile is output as a single file called 'roveralls.coverprofile' for use by tools such as goveralls.

This tool was inspired by [github.com/go-playground/overalls](https://github.com/go-playground/overalls) written by Dean Karn, but I found it difficult to test and brittle so I decided to rewrite it from scratch. Thanks for the inspiration Dean.

Usage
-----
At its simplest, to test the current package and sub-packages and create a `roveralls.coverprofile` file in the directory that you run the command:

$ roveralls

To see the help for the command:

$ roveralls -help

roveralls runs coverage tests on a package and all its sub-packages. The
coverage profile is output as a single file called 'roveralls.coverprofile'
for use by tools such as goveralls.

Usage of roveralls:
-covermode count,set,atomic
Mode to run when testing files: count,set,atomic (default "count")
-help
Display this help
-ignore dir1,dir2,...
Comma separated list of directory names to ignore: dir1,dir2,... (default ".git,vendor")
-short
Tell long-running tests to shorten their run time
-v Verbose output

View Output in a Web Browser
----------------------------
To view the code coverage for you packge in a browser:

$ go tool cover -html=roveralls.coverprofile

Use with goveralls
------------------
The output of `roveralls` is the same as the the standard `go test -coverprofile=profile.coverprofile` but with multiple files tested in the output file. This can therefore be used with tools such as `goveralls`.

If you wanted to call it from a `.travis.yml` script you could use:

- $HOME/gopath/bin/roveralls
- $HOME/gopath/bin/goveralls -coverprofile=roveralls.coverprofile -service=travis-ci
