Summary

We propose developing a test coverage tool for Daml smart contracts. Such a tool is currently not available for Daml, meanwhile it belongs to the basic toolbox expected by developers. The tool will be designed from the ground up for Daml's unique authorization model, UTXO-like state, and multi-party privacy semantics. It will be developed as open-source, free to use, executable locally, will integrate with the current Daml tooling, and will provide reports usable in CI/CD pipelines.
