+To enable code coverage support pass the ``--cov-topotest`` argument to pytest.
+If you build your FRR in a directory outside of the FRR source directory you
+will also need to pass the ``--cov-frr-build-dir`` argument specifying the build
+directory location.
+
+During the topotest run the *.gcda files are generated into a ``gcda``
+sub-directory of the top-level run directory (i.e., normally
+``/tmp/topotests/gcda``). These files will then be copied at the end of the
+topotest run into the FRR build directory where the ``gcov`` and ``lcov``
+utilities expect to find them. This is done to deal with the various different
+file ownership and permissions.
+
+At the end of the run ``lcov`` will be run to capture all of the coverage data
+into a ``coverage.info`` file. This file will be located in the top-level run

+
+The ``coverage.info`` file can then be used to generate coverage reports or file
