dotCover CLI (2025.2.20251003.202247) fails to capture code coverage for IIS-hosted web applications during Azure CI pipeline execution

I’m trying to generate a coverage report for an ASP.NET application hosted on IIS using JetBrains dotCover CLI in an Azure DevOps pipeline. I can achieve this manually using dotCover standalone and also with the Visual Studio extension.

Previously, older versions of dotCover supported commands like: (I read about it, never tried it.)

dotCover cover-iis --Instance=1
dotCover send --Command=GetSnapshotAndKillChildren --Instance=1

But in the latest dotCover CLI (installed as JetBrains.dotCover.CommandLineTools), I only see commands like cover, merge, report, and there is no send or cover-iis.

I tried almost everything available, below command did wait but couldn't proceed, it was looking as if the command prompt is hanged.

dotCover cover \
  --target-executable "C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe" \
  --target-arguments "test MyProject.csproj" \
  --xml-report-output coverage.xml
