Gradle task jacoco report generate empty html report file (No class files specified)

Question

I would like to use Jacoco to generate a code coverage report on all my tests (androidTest + UnitTest).

So I implemented a step-by-step script (jacoco.gradle) to create a task that allowed me to generate a report that merged two code coverage reports.

My problem is that the html generated file is empty (in app\build\jacocoReport\index.html):

No class files specified. JaCoCo 0.8.3.201901230119

I execute 'testIntegrationDebugUnitTest' task :

androidTest code coverage report has been created on app/build/reports/coverage/integration/debug/index.html and it's ok.
A 'ec' file has been generated on app\build\outputs\code_coverage\integrationDebugAndroidTest\connected\Pixel_2_API_24(AVD) - 7.0-coverage.ec
A 'exec' file has been generated on app/build/jacoco/testIntegrationDebugUnitTest.exec

Do you have any idea where my problem comes from? Here is my code:

jacoco.gradle :

apply plugin: 'jacoco'

jacoco {
    toolVersion = "$jacocoVersion"
    reportsDir = file("$buildDir/jacocoReport")
}

project.afterEvaluate {

    android.applicationVariants.all { variant ->
        def variantName = variant.name
        def testTaskName = "test${variantName.capitalize()}UnitTest"
        def androidTestCoverageTaskName = "create${variantName.capitalize()}CoverageReport"

        tasks.create(name: "${testTaskName}Coverage", type: JacocoReport, dependsOn: ["$testTaskName", "$androidTestCoverageTaskName"]) {
            group = "Reporting"
            description = "Generate Jacoco coverage reports for the ${variantName.capitalize()} build."

            reports {
                xml.enabled = false
                html.enabled = true
                html.destination "$buildDir/jacocoReport"
            }

            def excludes = ['**/R*.class',
                            '**/*$InjectAdapter.class',
                            '**/*$ModuleAdapter.class',
                            '**/*$ViewInjector*.class'
            ]

            def debugTree = fileTree(dir: "$project.buildDir/intermediates/javac/debug", excludes: excludes)
            def mainSrc = "$project.projectDir/src/main/java"

            sourceDirectories = files([mainSrc])
            classDirectories = files([debugTree])
            executionData = fileTree(dir: project.buildDir, includes: [
                    "jacoco/${testTaskName}.exec", "outputs/code_coverage/${variantName}AndroidTest/connected/**/*.ec"
            ])
        }
    }
}

I Have no InstrumentationResultParser error and no other error. I have only an empty html. — Dev Loots
the report reads No class files specified and that's build-tools 28.0.3 with $project.buildDir/intermediates/javac/debug. ever checked if there are any *.class files present in that debugTree? — Martin Zeitler
I had the same problem. What worked for me was changing the debugTree def to: def debugTree = fileTree(dir: "$project.buildDir/tmp/kotlin-classes/debug", excludes: excludes) — MatPag

This is a common problem, you need to change the debugTree property to:

//java compiled classes
def javaTree = fileTree(dir: "$project.buildDir/intermediates/javac/debug/classes", excludes: fileFilter)
//kotlin compiled classes
def kotlinTree = fileTree(dir: "$project.buildDir/tmp/kotlin-classes/debug", excludes: fileFilter)
//...etc...
classDirectories.from = files([javaTree, kotlinTree])

debug can be any variant, you can use $variantName in place of it if you know what you are doing
