clover-clean

You are reading documentation for version 4.2.x. Check the latest version.

The <clover-clean> task deletes the coverage database and associated coverage recording files.

Attribute	Description	Required
haltOnError	Controls whether an error (such as a failure to delete a file) stops the build or is merely reported to the screen ("`true`"/"`false`").	No; defaults to "`false`".
initstring	The initstring of the database to clean.	No; if not specified here, Clover will use the default location (`${basedir}/.clover`). If you have specified an `initstring` on the `<clover-setup>` task, you must ensure that `<clover-setup>` is called prior to the execution of this task.
keepdb	Controls whether to keep the coverage database file ("`true`"/"`false`"). If "`false`", the coverage database will be deleted.	No; defaults to "`false`".
keepTestSnapshot	Specifies whether the test snapshot file should be kept or deleted; defaults to true. ("`true`"/"`false`")	No; if not specified here, the last test snapshot will be stored. \(i) This is not deleted between builds (unlike the `.db` file and the coverage files).
verbose	Controls whether to show the name of each deleted file ("`true`"/"`false`").	No; defaults to "`false`".
