Is it possible to get code coverage with karate tests for java code?

Question

I'm trying to get test code coverage for java code using the karate test cases. I know Junit is the best approach for unit testing and code coverage but I need to do this specifically because I want to test the java code and get coverage through karate test cases. I am able to run the karate test case and get the cucumber HTML report and coverage report(provided by jacoco plugin) but karate test case coverage is not shown. I need to know if this is possible or not and if it is possible then what changes/additions do I need to make.

Feature: Test ElasticUtilsProperties
 
      Background:
        * def ElasticUtilsProperties = Java.type('com.staff.util.ElasticUtilsProperties')
        * def elasticProps = new ElasticUtilsProperties()
        
      Scenario: Get Host
          Given elasticProps.setHost("host-1")
           When def host = elasticProps.getHost()
           Then print 'host-->', host
        
      Scenario: Get Port
          Given elasticProps.setPort("host-1")
           When def port = elasticProps.getPort()
           Then print 'port-->', port
      
      Scenario: Get Scheme
          Given elasticProps.setScheme("scheme")
           When def scheme = elasticProps.getScheme()
           Then print 'scheme-->', scheme
      
      Scenario: Get trustStorePath
          Given elasticProps.setTrustStorePath("trustStorePath")
           When def trustStorePath = elasticProps.getTrustStorePath()
           Then print 'trustStorePath-->', trustStorePath
      
      Scenario: Get trustStorePass
          Given elasticProps.setTrustStorePass("trustStorePass")
           When def trustStorePass = elasticProps.getTrustStorePass()
           Then print 'trustStorePass-->', trustStorePass
      
      Scenario: Get pathPrefix
          Given elasticProps.setPathPrefix("PathPrefix")
           When def pathPrefix = elasticProps.getPathPrefix()
           Then print 'pathPrefix-->', pathPrefix
      
      Scenario: Get index
          Given elasticProps.setIndex("Index")
           When def index = elasticProps.getIndex()
           Then print 'Index-->', index
      
      Scenario: Get RestHighLevelClient
          Given elasticProps.setHost("host-1")
           When def host = elasticProps.getHost()
           Then print 'host-->', host

I don't think this is about Eclipse or JUnit - it is a Maven question.

The best reference that is available is this: https://github.com/intuit/karate/tree/master/karate-demo#code-coverage-using-jacoco

You can also try to search for other answers: https://stackoverflow.com/search?q=%5Bkarate%5D+coverage

But I think you will have to figure this out on your own. It would be good if you post your findings here for the benefit of others :)
