There is a difference on the code coverage result format

[fedegiust]

Summary

There is an inconsistency for running tests between deployment and running them directly.
When running a deployment there is an option for code coverage formatters which give a number of options, which is great! I like the html format.

But when running apex run test the options are limited

Steps To Reproduce

sf apex run test --test-level RunLocalTests --output-dir temp --synchronous --result-format html --code-coverage

Hello @fedegiust 👋 It looks like you didn't include the full Salesforce CLI version information in your issue.
Please provide the output of version --verbose --json for the CLI you're using (sf or sfdx).

A few more things to check:

• Make sure you've provided detailed steps to reproduce your issue.
  • A repository that clearly demonstrates the bug is ideal.
• Make sure you've installed the latest version of Salesforce CLI. (docs)
  • Better yet, try the rc or nightly versions. (docs)
• Try running the doctor command to diagnose common issues.
• Search GitHub for existing related issues.

Thank you!

Hey @fedegiust, thanks for sharing this! I am going to convert this into a Github Discussion since it is more of a feature request than a bug report. We have a few other things outline for a plugin-apex revamp that we will hopefully get prioritized for next year.

In the meantime as a work-around, you could use the --dry-run flag on sf project deploy start to get your html code coverage output without actually deploying your source
