+### Coverage reporters
+
+The tap and spec reporters will print a summary of the coverage statistics.
+There is also an lcov reporter that will generate an lcov file which can be
+used as an in depth coverage report.

+node --test --experimental-test-coverage --test-reporter=lcov --test-reporter-destination=lcov.info

+### Limitations

 The test runner's code coverage functionality has the following limitations,
 which will be addressed in a future Node.js release:

 * `junit`
   The junit reporter outputs test results in a jUnit XML format
 
+* `lcov`
+  The `lcov` reporter outputs test coverage when used with the
+  [`--experimental-test-coverage`][] flag.

 When `stdout` is a [TTY][], the `spec` reporter is used by default.
 Otherwise, the `tap` reporter is used by default.
