Coverage — Gate Boundary at 80.00% (meets the gate exactly)

A tracefile sitting meets the gate exactly against the 80% minimum in this group's gate config: 112 of 140 lines, 80.00%. 80.00% is exactly the configured minimum, so a > comparison fails the build and a >= comparison passes it — the single most common off-by-one in a coverage gate.

Evaluate a coverage gate configured with an 80% line minimum.
Expected result
The gate reads 80.00% and passes only if the comparison is >=.

What is a .lcov file?

LCOV is a plain-text code-coverage tracefile format originally produced by the Linux Test Project's front end for gcov and now emitted by tooling across many languages. Records are grouped per source file between an `SF:` line and an `end_of_record` line, with `DA:` lines giving per-line hit counts, `FN:`/`FNDA:` lines covering functions, `BRDA:` lines covering branches, and `LF`/`LH`, `FNF`/`FNH`, `BRF`/`BRH` summary counters.

How to use this file

Use an example .lcov file to test coverage viewers, merge tools, and CI coverage gates — verifying that summary counters match the detail lines, that multiple source records are merged rather than overwritten, and that branch data survives conversion to Cobertura or JSON.

How to use this file for testing

“Coverage — Gate Boundary at 80.00% (meets the gate exactly)” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Conversion testing, Config testing, Code parsing. The same content exported across many formats and linked as a group, so you can convert one and diff against the expected twin.

Documented properties for this file: seed 61200 · 4 records · LF. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.

Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.

Test and coverage reports document their totals (suites, cases, passes, failures, skips, covered lines) in the spec table. Point your CI dashboard, coverage gate, or report converter at the file and assert those counts survive; format twins carry identical numbers so a conversion can be scored exactly.
