Coverage in library `unit-test` includes dependent library files and does not reduce runtime when using coverage.include

首先，使用两个相互依赖的 Angular workspace 库和 @angular/build:unit-test builder，通过 ng test lib-a --coverage 重现该问题。比较有无 coverage.include 时的 coverage 输出和执行时间；当依赖库文件被排除，并且限制 coverage 也能缩短运行时间时，即表示完成。

Command

Description

When running unit tests for a library with @angular/build:unit-test, the coverage report includes files from other workspace libraries that the tested library depends on, which is unexpected.

Although this can be restricted with coverage.include, coverage execution time remains unchanged.

Minimal Reproduction

1. Create two Angular libraries in the workspace (e.g. lib-a and lib-b)
2. Make lib-a depend on lib-b
3. Add a unit test in lib-a
4. Run tests with coverage enabled:

ng test lib-a --coverage

Observed behavior

• The coverage report contains files from lib-b, even though only lib-a is being tested.
• Restricting coverage.include changes the generated report but does not noticeably reduce execution time.

Performance

Times below are for a single library test run inside a larger Angular monorepo where the tested library depends on ~7 other libraries from the same workspace.
Execution times vary depending on configuration (development vs production) used to build each of the libraries.

Without coverage:

Duration 24.94s
(transform 62.28s, setup 6.91s, import 98.85s, tests 982ms, environment 13.89s)

With coverage (production build):

Duration 154.60s
(transform 78.24s, setup 13.24s, import 135.76s, tests 1.58s, environment 19.90s)

With coverage (development build)

Duration 201.20s
(transform 57.83s, setup 10.09s, import 99.85s, tests 1.25s, environment 15.00s)
