A companion to the built-in nose.plugins.cover, this plugin will write out an XML coverage report to a file named coverage.xml.
It will honor all the options you pass to the "Nose coverage plugin":http://somethingaboutorange.com/mrl/projects/nose/0.11.1/plugins/cover.html, especially --cover-package.
