How to display Codecov.io badge in GitHub README.md?

After a long search and Try-n-Error i was able to find something which implicitly helped finding it out.

The way to implement a Codecov.io badge with your current Coverage ist the following :

In HTML :

<a href="https://codecov.io/github/<Your Organization/Acc.>/
<YourRepo>?branch=master">
<img alt="Coverage" src="https://codecov.io
/github/<Your Organization/Acc.>/<YourRepo>/coverage.svg?branch=master">
</a>

In Markdown:

[![codecov.io](https://codecov.io/github/<Your Organization/Acc.>/<YourRepo>/coverage.svg?branch=master)]
(https://codecov.io/github/<Your Organization/Acc.>/<YourRepo>?branch=master)

This Solution expects that you host the project on Github and that you upload the coverage reports.


Go to https://codecov.io/gh/<your-organisation>/<your-project>/settings/badge, here you can see your badges ready to be copied.

Or just navigate to your project and go to Settings -> Badge.
