+## V8 provider
+
+::: info
+The description of V8 coverage below is Vitest specific and does not apply to other test runners.
+Since `v3.2.0` Vitest has used [AST based coverage remapping](/blog/vitest-3-2#coverage-v8-ast-aware-remapping) for V8 coverage, which produces identical coverage reports to Istanbul.
+
+This allows users to have the speed of V8 coverage with accuracy of Istanbul coverage.
+:::
+
+By default Vitest uses `'v8'` coverage provider.
+This provider requires Javascript runtime that's implemented on top of [V8 engine](https://v8.dev/), such as NodeJS, Deno or any Chromium based browsers such as Google Chrome.
+
+Coverage collection is performed during runtime by instructing V8 using [`node:inspector`](https://nodejs.org/api/inspector.html) and [Chrome DevTools Protocol](https://chromedevtools.github.io/devtools-protocol/tot/Profiler/) in browsers. User's source files can be executed as-is without any pre-instrumentation steps.
+
+- ✅ Recommended option to use
+- ✅ No pre-transpile step. Test files can be executed as-is.
+- ✅ Faster execute times than Istanbul.
+- ✅ Lower memory usagethan Istanbul.
+- ✅ Coverage report accuracy is as good as with Istanbul ([since Vitest `v3.2.0`](/blog/vitest-3-2#coverage-v8-ast-aware-remapping)).
+- ⚠️ In some cases can be slower than Istanbul, e.g. when loading lots of different modules. V8 does not support limiting coverage collection to specific modules.
+- ⚠️ There are some minor limitations set by V8 engine. See [`ast-v8-to-istanbl` | Limitations](https://github.com/AriPerkkio/ast-v8-to-istanbul?tab=readme-ov-file#limitations).
+- ❌ Does not work on environments that don't use V8, such as Firefox or Bun. Or on environments that don't expose V8 coverage via profiler, such as Cloudflare Workers.

+
+## Istanbul provider
+
+[Istanbul code coverage tooling](https://istanbul.js.org/) has existed since 2012 and is very well battle-tested.
+This provider works on any Javascript runtime as coverage tracking is done by instrumenting user's source files.
+
+In practice, instrumenting source files means adding additional Javascript in user's files:
+
+```js
+// Simplified example of branch and function coverage counters
+const coverage = { // [!code ++]
+  branches: { 1: [0, 0] }, // [!code ++]
+  functions: { 1: 0 }, // [!code ++]
+} // [!code ++]
+
+export function getUsername(id) {
+  // Function coverage increased when this is invoked  // [!code ++]
+  coverage.functions['1']++ // [!code ++]
+
+  if (id == null) {
+    // Branch coverage increased when this is invoked  // [!code ++]
+    coverage.branches['1'][0]++ // [!code ++]
+
+    throw new Error('User ID is required')
+  }
+  // Implicit else coverage increased when if-statement condition not met  // [!code ++]
+  coverage.branches['1'][1]++ // [!code ++]
+
+  return database.getUser(id)
+}
+
+globalThis.__VITEST_COVERAGE__ ||= {} // [!code ++]
+globalThis.__VITEST_COVERAGE__[filename] = coverage // [!code ++]
+```
+
+- ✅ Works on any Javascript runtime
+- ✅ Widely used and battle-tested for over 13 years.
+- ✅ In some cases faster than V8. Coverage instrumentation can be limited to specific files, as opposed to V8 where all modules are instrumented.
+- ❌ Requires pre-instrumentation step
+- ❌ Execution speed is slower than V8 due to instrumentation overhead
+- ❌ Instrumentation increases file sizes
+- ❌ Memory usage is higher than V8
