Common Command Line Options
By default, the following options apply to coverage collection for IIS applications. To collect coverage for desktop applications, specify Command Line Options for Desktop Applications.
-register

-coverageDataDir <path>
Specifies the path to the coverage data output directory.
-uninitialize

-agentTimeout <milliseconds>
