Enhancement request: Code coverage exclusion filters

[Novanet-]

Azure DevOps Extension you are using

Pester

Where are you running it?

TFS 2018

Version of Extension/Task

V7

Requirement

Add a task parameter that allows the specifying of multiple exclude filters for folders/files to run coverage against.

Reason: Within our source folder which contains our poweshell scripts which we want to get coverage data for, we have a "ServiceFabric" folder that includes a load a Microsoft provided scripts that are needed for our implementation, but because are third-party code we don't write unit tests for.
Because they are in our source folder, they get included in our coverage data which messes up up our results. We have a workaround for this during local developmentby using a custom script to generate the coverage data.

$files = Get-ChildItem ..\Installation -File -Recurse -Include *.ps1 | Where {$_.FullName -notlike "*\ServiceFabric\*"}
Invoke-Pester -Path ..\Installation.Tests -CodeCoverage $files -CodeCoverageOutputFile ..\cov.xml

But there is no mechanism to specify this sort of filtering in our CI process using the Pester task at the moment.

I was thinking something like the search pattern parameter in the Index Sources & Publish Symbols task https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/build/index-sources-publish-symbols?view=azure-devops
