Research direction

Start by tracing how the plugin reads build_var and uses object_file_dir when parsing gcda files. Reproduce coverage generation with both the unit test and logic test targets, then confirm that gcda files from both unit_test.build and application.build are included in the generated coverage.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In our project we have two test targets. One is a unit test target and the other one a logic test target. The unit test target does not run the application and the gcda files for this target are saved in the unit_test.build by Xcode. On the other hand the logic test target gcda files are saved within the application build folder.

So when the plugin parses the gcda files to generate the code coverage, it misses the unit test information.
In the build_var file, object_file_dir is set to application.build/Objects-normal/x86_64
What can i do for the plugin to see both source of bcda files?
