What is the meaning of covered and not tracked in Go test coverage?

Question

I've started a small Go application to test it out and learn. In the main package I have a main.go with for example a function called NewApp .

In my test file I've called it several times, but in the coverage report its first line is marked as "not tracked". This function returns an App struct , but the whole struct definition is marked as "not tracked" to.

On the other hand I can't understand the difference between "not covered" and "not tracked". And is there a way to test the main function? I can't see the advantage of that.

My code is here .

谢谢，因此“未跟踪”不在覆盖率范围内。
