Unified Code Coverage Aggregation for Multi-Executable C++ Test Suites
A SaaS platform that collects raw coverage artifacts from multiple C++ test executables, normalizes them against a shared source and build identity, deduplicates files, functions, and basic blocks, and generates a unified coverage report. It would integrate with Visual Studio, CMake, LLVM, GCC, and CI systems, support pull-request coverage checks, historical trends, and drill-downs showing which test projects cover each line.
The problem
C++ teams that isolate tests into multiple executables or projects struggle to produce a single accurate code coverage report. Existing coverage tools may treat the same source blocks from different test binaries as separate entities, resulting in inflated totals and misleading coverage percentages. Avoiding this requires invasive dependency-injection changes or manual, fragile report-processing workflows.
Who feels this pain
Teams trying to turn raw data into a decision run into this often: A SaaS platform that collects raw coverage artifacts from multiple C++ test executables, normalizes them against a shared source and build identity, deduplicates files, functions, and basic blocks, and generates a unified coverage report. It would integrate with Visual Studio, CMake, LLVM, GCC, and CI systems, support pull-request coverage checks, historical trends, and drill-downs showing which test projects cover each line.
Why it matters
Decisions made on gut feeling instead of data cost real money over time.
Potential SaaS angle
A focused SaaS product built by turning this reporting gap into a clear dashboard could turn this into a real data analysis & reporting opportunity — there's already demand behind it.
