# Test coverage parameters

Test coverage reports describe the percentage of your code that has been tested by your test suite during a build.

This differs from test execution reports, which describe which tests within your test suite have been run during a build. For details, see [test-execution-parameters](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/analyzing-source-code/test-coverage/test-execution-parameters "mention").

Test coverage reports are not generated by SonarQube Cloud itself. They must be generated by an external tool and then imported into SonarQube Cloud by specifying a parameter telling the scanner where to look for the report.

The data is then displayed in your SonarQube Cloud analysis.

Below, you will find language- and tool-specific analysis parameters for importing test coverage reports.

For information on analysis parameters in general, see [analysis-parameters](https://docs.sonarsource.com/sonarqube-cloud/analyzing-source-code/analysis-parameters "mention").

Unless otherwise specified, these properties require values that are relative to the project root. Some properties support the following wildcards in paths. The remarks for properties that support wildcards will mention this fact. If wildcards are not noted for a given property, then they are not supported for that property.

| **Symbol** | **Meaning**               |
| ---------- | ------------------------- |
| `?`        | a single character        |
| `*`        | any number of characters  |
| `**`       | any number of directories |

## Rust <a href="#rust" id="rust"></a>

The Sonar Rust analyzer supports importing test coverage reports in the following formats:

* **LCOV:** You can import LCOV reports using the `sonar.rust.lcov.reportPaths` property. This property accepts a comma-separated list of file paths to your LCOV files.

If both `sonar.rust.lcov.reportPaths` and `sonar.rust.cobertura.reportPaths` are defined, the analyzer will consume both sets of reports sequentially. No merging or specific strategy is defined for handling conflicts or overlapping coverage data.
