Unreliable coverage testing #326

Closed

Description

@mihaic

There seems to be some variability in the coverage results reported. See discussion in PR #324.

A potential solution is changing the coverage testing to disallow lowering the coverage, not only to compare against a specified threshold.

    The increase in coverage from PR #327 should get us over the threshold again, but it does not help with reliability.

    Also, see this code comment in Coverage itself which indicates expected randomness:
