Code coverage tools - linux.conf.au BoF

Thursday, 10 January 2008  |  brad hards

Recent development has left me feeling a bit unhappy with part of my toolset - code coverage. I'm not especially interested in metrics (except as a guide to where to start) - rather in the detail.

gcov does part of the problem, but it really only works at the level of "lines executed", and doesn't do much for shared libraries.

There are a few people interested in a BoF session about this, to occur at linux.conf.au 2008. If you are interested, add your name and any comments to the linux.conf.au BoF Wiki page

Look forward to seeing all you smart people there.
