Proposal

This feature proposal focuses on adding an option for coverage reporting to display the highest value via the coverage: keyword in a .gitlab-ci.yml with multiple jobs. This could be an option that can be toggled or a variable that can be set up in a .gitlab-ci.yml.

Current behaviour

Coverage reporting will calculate the average (mean) from the coverage values when there are multiple figures being reported by multiple jobs. It reports the average figure, with a breakdown of the coverage figures reported by the respective jobs.
