2024-01-31 | Kirill Birger | en | It only works some of the time, and in the least useful way possible, in a github PR. This functionality should not need an extension, especially not one that requires such permissions | |
2023-10-11 | Dmytro Savochkin | Only works with small PRs | ||
2023-05-08 | Lachlan Cooper | It's nice to see test coverage directly in GitHub, but the extension itself is not very reliable. I often see rendering errors appear at the bottom of PR pages, and files with inline comments are often pushed far over to a single column making them totally unreadable. | ||
2023-03-06 | Brandt Lareau | Not super reliable and it only shows 20 files of coverage even if there are more in the PR. This would not be a problem if there was a way around the limitation but this extension is the only way. | ||
2022-10-24 | Wout Slakhorst | Recent changes require the extension access to your browsing history. This is not acceptable. Update: permissions have been restored as before. | ||
2022-09-29 | Diego Macedo da Silva | The extension is good, but this new permission to read browser history makes no sense and should not be required. | ||

2022-09-28 | Jon Wiese | Permission to access browser history is now required, which is excessive | ||
2022-09-27 | Shane Handley | Useful, but required permissions are excessive. | ||
2022-02-09 | Viktor Köves | Is it perfect? No, absolutely not. But it's a super helpful extension that can save you a lot of time running around different sites to understand why your code coverage went down. I do wonder though if a cleaner solution would be to improve the Code Climate site to actually have clear coverage change reports on their end. |
