Description-en: Perl tool for determining code coverage metrics
Devel::Cover is a Perl module that helps collect and display code coverage
information. Code coverage information is collected using a pluggable runops
function which counts how many times each op is executed. This data is then
mapped back to reality using the B compiler modules. There is also a another
statement profiler which needs a better backend to be really useful.
.
Statement, branch, condition, subroutine, pod and time coverage information is
reported. Statement coverage data should be reasonable, although there may be
some statements which are not reported. Branch and condition coverage data
should be mostly accurate too, although not always what one might initially
expect. Subroutine coverage should be as accurate as statement coverage. Pod
coverage comes from Pod::Coverage. If Pod::Coverage::CountParents is available
it will be used instead. Coverage data for path coverage are not yet
collected.
.
The cover program can be used to generate coverage reports. Another included
program, gcov2perl, can convert gcov files to Devel::Cover databases.
