-Test coverage
-=============
-
-It is considered good practice to develop and maintain the test suite
-with high level of test coverage, i.e., the tests that execute every
-single statement, every line of the code and then validate the result.
-
-The GNU's gcov is a tool that analyses the frequency of execution of
-each line of the code. For more details see GNU documentation
-http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Gcov.html
-
-To invoke gcov on krb5 tree, do configure with the following options
-and run the tests::
-
- ./configure CFLAGS="-fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage -O0" LIBS=-lgcov
- make
- make check
-
-It will result into creation of the new helper files with the
-extentions gcno and gcda.
-
-To validate the test coverage of the specific file, change the
-directory to its location and run ::
-
- gcov -o filename.so.gcno filename.c
-
-To see the test coverage of the filename.c open a newly created file
-filename.c.gcov in the editor.
