TODO coverage
Go 1.20 supports collecting code coverage profiles for programs
(applications and integration tests), as opposed to just unit tests.
</p>
<p>
To collect coverage data for a program, build it with <code>go</code>
<code>build</code>'s <code>-cover</code> flag, then run the resulting
binary with the environment variable <code>GOCOVERDIR</code> set
to an output directory for coverage profiles.
See the
<a href="https://go.dev/testing/coverage">'coverage for integration tests' landing page</a> for more on how to get started.
For details on the design and implementation, see the
<a href="https://golang.org/issue/51430">proposal</a>.
