# Code Coverage with Qlty

<Tip>Code coverage reporting is part of [Qlty Cloud](/cloud/quickstart).</Tip>

## Why use Qlty for code coverage?

Qlty's code coverage integration is a workflow and visualization platform for improving code coverage across your projects. It integrates seamlessly with your existing coverage tools, enhancing your development process with configurable pull request gates, team-level metrics, and trend analysis that helps engineers work toward common coverage goals while highlighting overall progress across your codebase.

## Advantages

Our platform ingests coverage reports from any source via standardized formats, supporting all major languages and frameworks through a language-agnostic architecture. Setup is minimal, requiring only the integration of our coverage uploader into your existing CI pipeline after your test coverage generation step.

## Advanced Features

* **Delta Analysis**: Intelligent measurement of coverage changes in modified code, prioritizing new code coverage
* **Coverage Isolation**: Segment coverage metrics by test type (unit, integration, e2e) for targeted improvement
* **Selective Testing**: Support for workflows which do not run the whole test suite on every commit
* **Server Side and Client Side Merging**: Able to merge coverage reports on the same machine or across multiple isolated machines using both client and/or server side merging
