title: How to get Jenkins to exclude entire folders from code coverage?
body: <p>I'm trying to figure out how to exclude a list of folders from the code coverage report generated by jacoco, which is launched by Jenkins.</p>
  
  <p>It seems possible to exclude classes, but not folders, which is annoying for me as I've started using a pretty big library for an online payment system. Running those unit tests means constantly creating test accounts on that platform and having to delete them again. Every single tine Jenkins runs.</p>
  
  <p>And it would be far simpler to just have the folders excluded than having to exclude every single one of the classes.</p>
