Ned Batchelder <n...@nedbatchelder.com> added the comment: The difficulty that coverage faces is not measuring python programs started from the command line like this, you can use "coverage run myprog.py" or "python -m coverage run myprog.py".
The difficulty is when there are subprocesses running python programs. Read http://nedbatchelder.com/code/coverage/subprocess.html for the two current hacks used to invoke coverage on subprocesses. If -C is implemented, it should have a PYTHONRUNFIRST environment variable (or the like) to make these hacks unnecessary. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14803> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
