codecov
Hosted coverage reports for GitHub, Bitbucket and Gitlab
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No. This package is deprecated and abandoned. The Codecov team explicitly recommends migrating to their new open-source uploader to prevent lapses in coverage reporting. The hard deprecation date of February 1, 2022 has already passed, and the repository is archived with no active maintenance. Do not install for new projects; existing projects should migrate immediately using Codecov's published migration guide.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Codecov account and repository upload token required.
- The uploader was deprecated on February 1, 2022 and no longer functions with Codecov's service.
- Low install friction with only two runtime dependencies (requests and coverage).

Verify before relying

What it is and what it does
Codecov is a command-line tool that gathers code coverage reports and uploads them to Codecov's hosted coverage dashboard. It supports coverage data from multiple programming languages (Python, Java, C#, Go, PHP, and others) in a single repository and automatically combines results across builds without additional configuration. The tool integrates with major CI platforms including Travis CI, GitHub Actions, CircleCI, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and others, detecting the CI environment automatically and optionally storing environment variables per build.
However, this package is no longer maintained. The Codecov team officially deprecated it in favor of a new open-source uploader, with a hard deprecation date of February 1, 2022 already passed. The repository is archived and the last release was in April 2023. Installing this package exposes you to the risk that uploads will fail or be rejected by Codecov's service.
Use it for
- Upload Python coverage reports to Codecov from legacy CI pipelines still using this deprecated uploader
- Combine coverage data from multiple languages in a single Codecov repository during migration to the new uploader
- Store environment variables alongside coverage builds for historical analysis on existing projects
