How to debug with VSCode when making a nyc coverage report?

I am trying to debug when running nyc instead of just while running the mocha tests, so I won't have to run tests twice each time.
VSCode runs the coverage and shows it to me, but it will not stop or verify breakpoints, how do I set it to properly debug?
Is it even possible?

My launch configuration:

{
        "type": "node",
        "request": "launch",
        "name": "Coverge",
        "program": "/usr/local/bin/nyc",
        "args": [
            "${workspaceFolder}/node_modules/mocha/bin/_mocha",
            "-u",
            "tdd",
            "--timeout",
            "999999",
            "--colors",
            "${workspaceFolder}/tests/*/*"
        ],
        "skipFiles": [
            "${workspaceFolder}/node_modules/**/*.js"
        ],
        "env": {},
        "outputCapture": "std",
        "internalConsoleOptions": "openOnSessionStart"
    }

I got your back bro.

Since NYC runs the subprocess as a spawn it would not work. But you can run a what is called a Compound Launch, which in practice runs 2 processes and the first one connects to the second one that is there waiting, listening to a port (9229 by default) and then voila.

        ,

            "type": "node",
            "name": "AttachMocha",
            "request": "attach",
            "port": 9229
        }
    ],

    "compounds": [
      {
        "name": "NYC/Mocha",
        "configurations": ["AttachMocha", "Coverage"]
      }
    ]
}

you are going to see NYC/Mocha on your debug run list.
