Looking for books or other references that discuss actually "how" to write a code coverage tool in Java; some of the various techniques or tricks - source vs. byte code instrumentation. This is for a scripting language that generates java byte code under the hood. ...
What code analysis tools do you use on your Java projects? I am interested in all kinds static code analysis tools (FindBugs, PMD, and any others) code coverage tools (Cobertura, Emma, and any others) any other instrumentation-based tools anything else, if I'm missing something If applicable, also state what build tools you use and...
I have a very large code base that contains extensive unit tests (using CppUnit). I need to work out what percentage of the code is exercised by these tests, and (ideally) generate some sort of report that tells me on a per-library or per-file basis, how much of the code was exercised. Here's the kicker: this has to run completely unnat...
Is it possible to use gcov for coverage testing of multi-threaded applications? I've set some trivial tests of our code-base up, but it would be nice to have some idea of the coverage we're achieving. If gcov isn't appropriate can anyone recommend an alternative tool (possible oprofile), ideally with some good documentation on getting ...
I'm looking for a good .Net code coverage alternative to NCover (insufficient .Net 3.5 coverage and now pay-for) or VSTS (way too expensive). We currently test with NUnit, but could switch to something with a similar 'layout' for its text fixtures if it were better integrated. ...
What is your favourite Code Coverage tool(s) (Free/non-free) and how do you use them effectively? There are several options available, such as: CodeCover Coverlipse Emma / EclEmma Atlassian Clover (commercial) Cobertura Crap4j I have CodeCover telling me various chunks of my code are 58% covered etc. But how does this help me write ...
Is there any tool which will allow me to perform a free text search over a system's code, but only over the code which was actually executed during a particular invocation? To give a bit of background, when learning my way around a new system, I frequently find myself wanting to discover where some particular value came from, but search...
Looking for a Javascript code coverage tool. Ideally, I'd be able to easily integrate with continuous builds. Looking for something that I can run cross-platform, but Windows only tools may be able to work. Does anybody have any good recommendations of tools to use or what tools to avoid? Note: I've already read through this question:...
I am writing a unit test to check that a private method will close a stream. The unit test calls methodB and the variable something is null The unit test doesn't mock the class on test The private method is within a public method that I am calling. Using emma in eclipse (via the eclemma plugin) the method call is displayed as not bei...
I need to know how to turn on Code Coverage when running TFS builds on a solution with a .testrunconfig file. There is an option in the testrunconfig file that is for code coverage, but when running a TFS build there is no code coverage results. I am running my tests using the *Tests.dll mask and NOT using Test Lists (.vsmdi). ...
AFAIK, there isn't a free code coverage tool for C++. ...
If you were to mandate a minimum percentage code-coverage for unit tests, perhaps even as a requirement for committing to a repository, what would it be? Please explain how you arrived at your answer (since if all you did was pick a number, then I could have done that all by myself ;) ...
We've got a multiproject we're trying to run Cobertura test coverage reports on as part of our mvn site build. I can get Cobertura to run on the child projects, but it erroneously reports 0% coverage, even though the reports still highlight the lines of code that were hit by the unit tests. We're using mvn 2.0.8. I've tried running "mvn ...
I need to estimate the code coverage of a test set. The tests are run on a J2ME application, on a physical device. MIDP 2.1, CLDC 1.1 and JSR-75 FileConnection are available. As J2ME is (roughly) a subset of J2SE, tools using java.io.File (like those listed in the only answer so far..) can not be used. This is mainly to identify pieces ...
Are there any tools that can tell me what percentage of a XSL document get actually executed during tests? UPDATE I could not find anything better than Oxygen's XSL debugger and profiler, so I'm accepting Mladen's answer. ...
I am using VS2005 VC++ for unmanaged C++. I have VSTS and am trying to use the code coverage tool to accomplish two things with regards to unit tests: See how much of my referenced code under test is getting executed See how many methods of my code under test (if any) are not unit tested at all Setting up the VSTS code coverage tool ...
Has anyone experienced this VSTS Code Coverage "bug?" Do you have any suggestions? I am doing code coverage analysis with Visual Studio, which is generally an easy task now with the tools that are included. However, I have an issue that I can't overcome. Let's say I have assemblies A, B, C, and D and have marked them all for coverage a...
We have a large C/C++ legacy source tree that has been around the block a few times. We expect there are a substantial number of methods no longer used. Is there a tool that can help us quickly identify the unused code? ...
mono creates its own debug targets called .mdb files when you use the mcs compiler. is there a way of using NCover or another code coverage tool with Mono? a commandline tool would be better so I can add it to our continuous integration server. ...
Converting my current code project to TDD, I've noticed something. class Foo { public event EventHandler Test; public void SomeFunction() { //snip... Test(this, new EventArgs()); } } There are two dangers I can see when testing this code and relying on a code coverage tool to determine if you have enough t...
