I think you'd have to do nosetests --with-coverage

from coveralls-python.

I've got coveralls to work with nosetests --with-coverage --cover-package=flask_slither However, coveralls reports the % covered across the stack, not just my repo. Even with --cover-package it doesn't work (although travis displays the correct % it would seem). Any advice?

Make sure you define exclusion rules in your .coveragerc configuration file. Take mine as an example https://github.com/amoa/tidehunter/blob/master/.coveragerc

For full details on what you can do with the configuration, check out the official documentation http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage/config.html

The reason why that Travis (or basically command line running your unit tests suite) reports the correct coverage while Coveralls seems to report on more is because Coveralls actually takes all your source file and does a full scan and generates custom report together with what's generated by coverage.py

Looks like @woozyking is right, and I have included his approach to solving nosetests issue with coveralls into documentation.

I'm closing this issue, because nosetests generally should work.

@pastephens, I'm not sure what's the problem it was in the first place. I've added troubleshooting guide to readme. If you're willing to provide debug output I'll see what I can do.
