Description

travis reports this error in every log, yet at least some coverage information is available on codecov.io

Repository

CI/CD

travis-ci

Uploader

I’m not sure. I am using the default installation for github and nodejs (npm i codecov -g)

Commit SHAs

Irrelevant, happens every time. There is a SHA in the report if you want to double-check.

Codecov YAML

Irrelevant (currently excluding test code, but this happens with or without that exclusion)

Hi @manolan1, for many projects, they run gcov as a way to collect coverage reports. This is not always necessary, but we attempt to run it by default. You can run codecov --disable=gcov to remove the error, but it should not change your reports on Codecov.
