Why is my BuldQualityChecks task failing in azure pipelines

I have been using the BuildQualityChecks@8 VSBuild@1 azure pipeline task successfully up until now, when I suddenly started getting the following error:

SystemVssConnection exists true
Using IdentifierJobResolver
Validating code coverage policy...
Successfully read code coverage data from build.
Total lines: 0
Covered lines: 0
Code Coverage (%): 0
[ERROR] The code coverage value (0%, 0 lines) is lower than the minimum value (19%)!

I also noticed that my PublishBuildArtifacts@1 task (executed after BuildQualityChecks) is failing because it can't find the path to my c# code:

##[error]Publishing build artifacts failed with an error: Not found PathtoPublish: C:\a\1\s\App.Utils.cs\Utility\bin\x64\Release

This is my pipeline task:

- task: mspremier.BuildQualityChecks.QualityChecks-task.BuildQualityChecks@8
            displayName: 'Check build quality'
            inputs:
              checkCoverage: true
              coverageFailOption: fixed
              coverageType: lines
              coverageThreshold: 0
              buildConfiguration: Test
              buildPlatform: x86

I set the coverageThreshold to 0 for now in order to get a working build, but I would love to get to the root of the problem. Any help would be much appreciated.

The pipeline fails for you most likely due to the fact that you're running it with 0 covered lines and 0 total lines.

There is an option, from the available list of options viewed on the VS marketplace, to treat 0% coverage as 100%. This is turned off by default, so it might solve your problem.

This means that you should put this option into your task:
