This seems to be a rather unusual setup. The "expected" setting is that tests live somewhere within the source checkout and are run on the non-installed sources, usually as part of the CI build process, sometimes even just as part of a separate reporting process. Why do you want to create coverage reports after the installation? > A secondary issue: the .pyx files are never copied over to the installation > directory, so even if the paths were 'correct' (with respect to being > copied into the site-packages folder or being accessible via developer mode > pip-installs), they wouldn't be found. Sure, that's a difference from .py/.pyc files which are getting executed directly. For Cython code, there is an additional compile/build step that generates the executable code from the sources, which are then no longer needed. That's another reason why support for coverage reporting after the installation seems foreign here and wouldn't be of much use. So, my suggestion would be to run the coverage reports within the source tree after building it, when all source files are readily available. But I'm obviously missing a lot of information about your actual project setup and the reasons behind what you are doing here.
