Research direction

The issue points to lib/slather/project.rb lines 214–226 and provides a fork commit with a proposed change. Read that code and compare it with the linked commit, then check how the CodeCoverage framework is handled when locating binaries. Done means the reported Datadog framework no longer triggers the old Xcode coverage folder handling; the payload names no test file to run.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

So DataDog has a Swift Test Optimization SDK which happens to have an internal framework named CodeCoverage.

This code in project.rb does not like this framework as it thinks it's an old Xcode CodeCoverage data folder: https://github.com/SlatherOrg/slather/blob/d0d5dd0e725459949f218f24556e388e6683e16e/lib/slather/project.rb#L214-L226

this leads to errors like:

slather-2.8.4/lib/slather/project.rb:607:in `find_binary_files': No product binary found in fastlaneDerivedDataOutput/Build/Products/Debug-iphonesimulator/DatadogSDKTesting.framework/Frameworks/CodeCoverage.framework/CodeCoverage. (StandardError)

I've got a fork with this change in it: https://github.com/SlatherOrg/slather/commit/da5f8e0bb49c65e4a3545b66accc20ced4b664cd

This seems to fix it but I'm not a ruby dev and I don't know this library much at all.
