I am currently trying to shift my Julia CI from Travis to GitHub actions (and am pretty new to the topic of CI). Any working workflow for implementing **[codecov.io](http://codecov.io)** usage for **GitHub actions** in a j **ulia** project is highly appreciated, I couldn’t find any.  
Below you can find my current workflow. My main problems come from the interplay of

```julia
 julia --code-coverage test/runtests.jl

```

and

```julia
bash <(curl -s https://codecov.io/bash) 

```

The current `--code-coverage` option produces `.cov` files in the src directory. However the bash version of the codecov upload does not seem to find these files:

```julia
==> GitHub Actions detected.
    project root: .
    Yaml found at: .codecov.yml
--> token set from yaml
==> Running gcov in . (disable via -X gcov)
==> Python coveragepy not found
==> Searching for coverage reports in:
    + .
--> No coverage report found.
    Please visit http://docs.codecov.io/docs/supported-languages

```

I already tried to do this with the `Coverage.jl` package, which seemed to give a faulty upload url for some reason. I am aware of different out of the box actions for codecov or julia testing, but none worked in my combined use case.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I managed to get the config suggested here to work pretty much otb: [Easy workflow file for setting up GitHub Actions CI for your Julia package](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/easy-workflow-file-for-setting-up-github-actions-ci-for-your-julia-package/49765)

I didnt compare your config to the one in there so sorry if this is what you already tried.

That worked, thank you very much!  
It seems I did not include `julia-actions/julia-processcoverage@v1` in my code previously, which is why it did not work. Don’t know why I didn’t find this blog post earlier. Sorry!
