Daniel Palme is a seasoned CTO and .NET specialist with 17 years in custom software development, focused on Microsoft/.NET, web technologies and cloud-native patterns. He is the long-time author and maintainer of the widely used open-source ReportGenerator project, which turns coverage data from tools like coverlet, OpenCover and JaCoCo into readable reports and reflects his emphasis on test coverage and code quality. Daniel combines hands-on backend and build/release engineering—having improved CI/packaging for OpenCover and benchmarked IoC containers—with leadership in production-grade automation and deployment. Based in the Greater Munich area, he brings a pragmatic engineering mindset that pairs careful tooling work (including format support and performance tuning) with strategic technical direction.
ReportGenerator converts coverage reports generated by coverlet, OpenCover, dotCover, Visual Studio, NCover, Cobertura, JaCoCo, Clover, gcov or lcov into human readable reports in various formats.
