High test coverage is the worst metric one can aim for. As soon as frameworks and external APIs are involved, it's basically impossible to achieve without bending over backwards and needlessly creating mocks for half your system.
My biggest pet peeve in this context are test coverage requirements for OO languages that feature properties or getters and setters. 100% test coverage would require writing "tests" for those, which basically amounts to testing whether the compiler works - madness!
