http://bugs.exim.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1266 Summary: add gcov/lcov code coverage support Product: PCRE Version: N/A Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: bug Priority: medium Component: Code AssignedTo: p...@hermes.cam.ac.uk ReportedBy: c...@gnome.org CC: pcre-dev@exim.org Created an attachment (id=580) --> (http://bugs.exim.org/attachment.cgi?id=580) code coverage testing gcov is a tool to test a code coverage, and lcov generates nice html report pages from it. Code coverage testing is important to check that the test suite actually does test the library sufficiently. And the annotated source code can be used to see which places need more testing and guide in creating those extra tests. To show you what this will do, I've uploaded the html report for 8.31-RC2 at http://people.gnome.org/~chpe/pcre-lcov/opt/source/git/pcre/index.html -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.exim.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
