I'm a noob to using both OpenCover and ReportGenerator and I'm struggling a bit in understanding how to get them working. I'm using VS.NET 2012 'Professional' which means I don't have access to the built in unit test coverage tooling. I also have ReSharper installed, but don't want to pay for another utility in 'dotCover'
It looks like OpenCover and ReportGenerator will do what I need and I see the documentation that was downloaded alongside, but am missing some understanding. 1st off, when I download the nuget packges for both, what should my target project be? I have a multi layer app, so I'm assuming my unit test project correct, or does it even matter? I see in the documentation, I'm just pointing at the /bin (I think) of a solution using command line commands, so maybe I didn't even need to add these downloads to any particular project (could have been a test harness). Can someone tell me if I have this correct?
Once I have them installed, I'm trying to get unit test coverage metrics, and the docs that came with the package are not as clear as I hoped. Are there any good blog posts or links that walk through using these tool together to get the metrics?
