Exclude Packages, Files, and Classes from Cobertura Jenkins report? - jenkins

I'm trying to get Cobertura code coverage reports integrated into Jenkins for my company's AngularJS project. It's working, however, packages files and classes with es5 AngularJS project are always 100%. What I'm more focused on obviously, are the methods lines and conditionals.
Since the first 3 metrics are always 100% the graph leaves little to be desired as I can't zoom in close enough to notice slight changes in the metrics.
Is there a way to exclude Packages, Files, and Classes from the report?

Jenkins cobertura plugin - comparison of code coverage reports

does anybody know if Cobertura provides possibility to automatically compare code coverage reports of two builds? If needed, I am always doing it manually in separate tabs in browser, which takes some time for larger modules

Publish Test Coverage Report Through Jenkins to Slack

I'm calculating code coverage on every build done in Jenkins and producing a coverage XML report. That's recorded really nicely inside of Jenkins with Cobertura, but what I'd really like is to be able to somehow get at the total branch coverage number so I can automatically publish to a medium the rest of my team can easily consume (i.e. Slack).
As a bonus, getting the difference in coverage from the last run would be even better. I don't see any environment variables that hold this, and haven't found anything detailing a simple way to do this in Cobertura docs. I know I can hack some code together to do this myself, but if there's a simple way I'm missing or something someone else has already built, I'd much rather do that.
I believe you'll have to do this yourself.
The existing Slack plugin just sends build start/success/failure notifications etc.
The Cobertura plugin unfortunately doesn't seem to be built on top of the static code analysis plugin, so there probably isn't much in the way of graphs, difference reports and all that.
You could try adding /api/json to the end of a Cobertura report URL for a Jenkins build — most endpoints reveal some information in this way. If there's some useful information, that could be a basis for whatever you want to hack together.

Creating views of sonar analysis that cuts across multiple modules/packages?

I have a jenkins build that runs sonar analysis on my code base, which is a multi-module maven project. The sonar results allow me to view coverage and issues by drilling down from the project as a whole to the modules, then the packages in those modules, then the classes in those packages.
Is there a way to create different views of the sonar analysis that span different aspects of the project, e.g. "show me the results for packages A,B,C in module M1 and packages X,Y,Z in module M2"?
All this information is (I assume) stored in the database for the project. There may be a plugin that already does this, or maybe I need to write a plugin of my own that queries the database.
I believe the Views plugin should answer your need: http://www.sonarsource.com/products/plugins/governance/portfolio-management/.
If you want an example of how to use it, here is a post on my blog: http://qualilogy.com/en/your-own-quality-model/.
Not recent, but you'll get the idea.

How to display performance test results on Jenkins

We've written a framework to test the performance of our Java application (none of the existing frameworks, eg JMeter, were appropriate). The framework produces various metrics, e.g. mean/min/max transactions per second.
We'd like each Jenkins build to display these metrics so that we can keep track of whether a commit has improved performance or not.
I can't figure out how to do this.
One idea is to modify our performance test framework to output a HTML file, then somehow make Jenkins display/link to it on the build results page.
Any advice gratefully received.
The Peformance Plugin can show the results of JMeter and JUnit test in the nice, graphical fashion. And on the plugin page there is a description on how to use it.
This is an open-source plugin hosted on GitHub. The JUnit and JMeter parser are already there, but You can implement your own just by subclassing PerformanceReportParser. It's pretty easy and you can just fork the repo and start your implementation.
I agree that it is hard (if not impossible) to squeeze all the information into standard formats, like JUnit. They are good for quick identification of problems. Once you know there is a problem - you need more information that is usually free-form or custom-formatted to fit your particular needs. So we use both: JUnit that can be immediately processed by Jenkins to decide if the build is stable or not, draw the nice trend graph, etc. We also produce an HTML report that is much more detailed.
Now to your immediate question: you can simply archive your HTML file as an artifact (there is a standard post-build step to do that). Then a link to it will be displayed among the artifacts for the build. There are permalinks to the latest artifacts and latest successful build artifacts:
http://[server]/job/[job_name]/lastCompletedBuild/artifact/foo.html
http://[server]/job/[job_name]/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/foo.html
You may bookmark those links and have quick and easy one-click access to your results.
You could use the HTML Publisher Plugin to publish the resulting HTML page. That would be pretty straightforward.
If you want better integration you could try to create output that follows the same format JMeter produces, and use the Performance Plugin.
For best result you could take Łukasz advice and modify the Performance Plugin to your needs. That requires the most effort on your part, of course.

Need a tool for visualizing ant execution flows and properties

I'm trying to figure out how the DITA Open Toolkit performs DITA to XHTML conversions, and it's difficult since the process is managed by dozens of ant targets spread over multiple ant files.
I need a tool that can provide a visualization of the execution flow plus property dependencies of an ant invocation. VizAnt and Grand only graph target invocations, so I'm looking for something heavier-duty. Ideally, such a tool would identify the order of target invocations, as well as property values live at invocation, and properties, files, directories, classpath entries, etc. that are referenced in the body of a target.
My first thought was to manually graph it all in OmniGraffle, but the complexity quickly became unmanageable. Surely there's something more recent out there?
yWorks Ant Explorer is kind of cool.
Graphical representation of the ANT build targets and dependencies http://www.yworks.com/demos/images/ae1.jpg
Execute code through the GUI explorer of the ANT build file http://www.yworks.com/demos/images/ae3.jpg
Run it by executing the jar file: java -jar antexplorer.jar
It looks like yWorks no longer supports it and have removed it from their website. Links that used to go to Ant Explorer now just take you to their product listing page.
But there appear to be several places that have it available for download:
