Hi Sam, AFAIK apk archive already contain dex files (not class files). JaCoCo only works in class files.
I think indeed with offline instrumentation it is possible to instrument class files before dex files and the apk are created. As I’m not a Android developer I can’t tell you details about the setup. A quick google search results in several blogs from people who use JaCoCo for Android. Regards, -marc > On 14.
