(Taken from #1076...)

Expected Behavior

After tests, nyc should show 100% coverage

Observed Behavior

When running tests on Windows, the coverage is 0. Not even after upgrading to nyc@15

yea, I know it's frustrating, I saw how the other issue fell in the abyss.
but I would like to help with that - and I'm ready for a lot:

we can exchange quicker correspondences in a personal channel
we can setup a google-meet/zoom and share screen if that will help
I can also do the PR and pass your CI f you'll only point me in the right direction and save me time of getting in to this so I understand what I'm looking for

I was not able to reproduce the error by cloning and running it on my own machine.

I've tried both v14 and v15, it is working as intended.

osher · 2021-02-18T08:48:56Z

WTF. I also just cloned a project where it worked on windows.
It tried on v15.1, v15.1 and v14 and they all worked, the culprit is not there.

I'll find the differences and update, but will be able to do it next week.

osher · 2021-02-22T09:58:11Z

bullseye! 🎯
I manage to find a reproduction scenario. @Darkripper214 - lets hope it's the only one.

First - disclaimer

when I posted the issue I edited out parts from the paths because I did not think it makes a difference.
But evidently, it did, because one of the edited out path folders was a symlink (junction).

I use a symlink because the ops guys destroyed my name when creating my ldap username. By the time I got to open a ticket to fix that - they could fix everything except for the original underlying LDAP username - and sadly, that happens a lot with my consultation customers.
So I hide it with a symlink, and since I did not want my name in the bug description - I edited it out.

Anyway - see for yourself:

This leads me to suspect that when symlinks are involved nyc may be watching the wrong paths

osher · 2021-02-22T10:02:37Z

@Darkripper214 - whats the procedure here, should I update the bug description above to make it easier for future readers that land on the issue from something they googled?
I mean, is that something you do here, or you prefer to preserve the narrative?

osher · 2021-02-22T12:47:24Z

ha. I've got it.

follow up here: istanbuljs/test-exclude#46

osher · 2021-02-22T14:19:52Z

actually, we may not need to wait for the PR on test-exclude if we pass it from nyc side a path already resolved through fs.realpath.
LMK what you think.

osher · 2021-03-16T12:45:22Z

@Darkripper214 - sup?

osher · 2021-03-30T07:25:44Z

Summary: I found the culprit, it's in test-exclude.
We can wait for them, or we can pass them an already resolved path.
@Darkripper214 - what do you think?|

osher · 2021-03-30T12:09:09Z

omg. sorry for the noise. I thought I was getting maintainers in the autocomplete when I type"@".

@coreyfarrell, you look a frequent committer on both projects - are you a maintainer of this project? Can we have your opinion?

osher · 2021-05-18T13:01:21Z

so. what's the move?

GerHobbelt · 2021-07-03T09:33:06Z

Same problem here. This time, SUBST-based. See istanbuljs/test-exclude#46 (comment)

updated build environment fixed some bother, filed mochajs/mocha#4675 noted istanbuljs/nyc#1381 but no dice

osher · 2021-09-19T08:05:25Z

any decision?

andyleejordan · 2021-10-06T20:39:15Z

I hope that nyc gets fixed for Windows and updated, I'd like to use it, but right now it's not usable on Windows at all.
