Using Coveralls in your Gradle build

Recently I stumbled over a tool Coveralls . It helps monitoring your test coverage. You can integrate it e.g. with your Travis-CI builds by using a plugin for your favorite build tool. Needless to say that they also provide Travis-CI similar badge to show off your current test coverage near your current build status in your README file at GitHub .

Their docs sadly aren’t very focused on Java tools like Maven or Gradle, so you have to find a working plugin on your own (or code a new one by using the Coveralls API). I tried the coveralls-gradle-plugin for my gradle-debian-plugin and it works like a charm! Just have a look at the list of results - showing some potential to improve test coverage ;-)
