Hi guys,
I was wondering if any of you EMMA users have encountered this issue.
Basically I have multiple projects each with different build.xml ANT scripts that are all called from one main ANT script individually. The code is covered appropriately but when a JUnit method calls another method in a different project, that external method call is not covered by EMMA.
Has anyone encountered this issue? Can anyone spare any advice?
Thanks
Are you sure you're pointing your unit tests at the instrumented classes for the external method call?
Can't help you with Emma. But what you need is a code coverage tool that can combine test coverage data from multiple projects into a coherent whole.
SD's test coverage tools (including the one for Java) can do this out of the box. This allows one to keep lots of "projects" that each make up a significant part of a much larger (meta)project (e.g., Eclipse!), and get a picture of coverage of the metaproject. We've uses this to handle systems with 45,000 compileable Java programs. They can also combine data from multiple test coverage runs on a single project into coherent information for that project.
