Code Coverage analysis includes internal Types

I have a project that I ran the Visual Studio 2015 code coverage analysis against. In the results, it includes internal classes in the results hierarchy that I can't test against. I don't want to use the InternalsVisibleToAttribute, but I also don't like that it's counted as part of the code coverage path.

Is there a way to have visual studio ignore internal classes, so that the code coverage results only includes public classes that I can actually touch with unit tests?

Code Coverage

The CachedTypeData is an internal sealed class with a series of generic methods. As you can above the type is included in my results, right next to two public classes, Autosave<T> and EngineTimer<T>.

No Visual studio doesn't has such a capability however, you can put ExcludeFromCodeCoverage attribute on your Internal classes.

Note: Visual Studio's CCA measures the CC's percentage through the IL, if your Classes under test use an Internal method/class then those Internal method/class will be cover. So in most cases you shouldn't split/exclude your Internal classes.
