This plugin serves as API to integrate and publish multiple coverage report types.
Code Coverage API plugin now supports Cobertura and Jacoco.
For Cobertura
<build>

<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>cobertura-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.7</version>
<configuration>
<formats>
<format>xml</format>
</formats>
<check/>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>cobertura</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
For Jacoco
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
<artifactId>jacoco-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.8.1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>prepare-agent</goal>
</goals>

<id>report</id>
<phase>package</phase>
