Should html files be counted in coverage reports?

[cclauss]

Please go over all the sections and search
https://pytest-cov.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ or
https://coverage.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
before opening the issue.

Summary

I use both pytest-django and pytest-cov to test my Django project. The coverage report is listing out all .html files as having 0% test coverage. This substantially lowers the project's coverage. I expect coverage to list my Python files but not any of my HTML files.

• Are there ways to write pytests to cover Python code in HTML files?
• Is there a way to remove all .html files from my coverage report?

Expected vs actual result

Config

Include your tox.ini, pytest.ini, .coveragerc, setup.cfg or any relevant configuration.

Link to your repository, gist, pastebin or just paste raw code that illustrates the issue.

If you paste raw code make sure you quote it, eg:
