Using overrideComponent breaks code coverage when testing with aot: true

Reproduce el problema en la aplicación generada usando angular.json, app.spec.ts, TestBed.overrideComponent y los comandos proporcionados ng test --no-watch --code-coverage. Compara la cobertura antes y después del override y, a continuación, rastrea los puntos de entrada de las pruebas de Angular CLI y de la cobertura AOT. Se considera terminado cuando el override ya no hace que la cobertura de la plantilla del componente sea inexacta.

Command

Description

When using TestBed.overrideComponent to stub a child component, the test code coverage is no longer accurate

Minimal Reproduction

Generate a new app with latest CLI and add a component:

npx @angular/cli@20.0.0-next.6 new aot-coverage --defaults --no-routing
cd aot-coverage
ng g c user

Use app-user in app.html:

<h1>Hello, aot-coverage</h1>
<app-user></app-user>

Edit angular.json to add "aot": true in the test section and run:

ng test --no-watch --code-coverage

Coverage is 100%

Statements   : 100% ( 12/12 )
Branches     : 100% ( 11/11 )
Functions    : 100% ( 3/3 )
Lines        : 100% ( 6/6 )

Now, in the app.spec.ts, add in beforeEach:

TestBed.overrideComponent(App, {
  remove: {
    imports: [User],
  },
  add: {
    imports: [User],
  }
});

(this happens with a proper stub of course but even removing the import and adding it back works to reproduce the issue)

Run the tests again:

ng test --no-watch --code-coverage

Coverage is now inaccurate because the template is not properly covered:

Statements   : 58.33% ( 7/12 )
Branches     : 90.9% ( 10/11 )
Functions    : 66.66% ( 2/3 )
Lines        : 66.66% ( 4/6 )
