If the clover publisher and gcovr route does not work for you, you could consider an alternate technique. I use the "lcov" command (usually bundled with gcov) to convert the gcov results into HTML pages (browsable source code annotated with the coverage results) and then use the HTML publisher plugin to make those HTML pages available from Jenkins. The resulting web pages are not as well integrated into Jenkins as the clover output, but it works reliably for me. Mark Waite
