The way I have always approached problems like this is to check out what existing scripts are doing that are already successfully submitting coverage results.
This one is on the VTK dashboard: http://cdash.org/CDash/viewNotes.php?buildid=1880030 This one on CMake: http://cdash.org/CDash/viewNotes.php?buildid=1879840 This one on ITK: http://cdash.org/CDash/viewNotes.php?buildid=1879940 A simplest minimal example script that works with your example project should be fairly easy to derive by distilling the coverage-related elements from those scripts. I think there's also a script in the ITK source tree that helps you run coverage on just your own test and inspect the results locally. I can't remember its whereabouts, but I bet you could find that too if you search the ITK list archives. > It'd be great if someone could add a simple example script that calls > ctest_coverage to this example, along with the procedure to run it and > inspect the result: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CTest/Coverage/Example I agree. That would be great. Hopefully, this is helpful, for now. David C.
