Depending on the coverage tool, your source is either weaved just before
compilation, or some runtime byte code manipulation happens such that every
executable line of your projects class files are scored (hits, efficiency,
etc) into some form of results, for which reports can be generated against.
Here's an example:
http://svn.apache.org/builds/struts/maven/trunk/docs/multiproject/struts-taglib/jcoverage/index.htmlYou can drill into any linked package and class, and see line for line whatis being hit, and what it
not.....good stuff!!If your project is mavenized, adding 1 line in the report section gets youthis full report (for your project) for free, no other configurationneeded....it just doesn't get any better
than that!--James MitchellSoftware Engineer / Open Source EvangelistConsulting / Mentoring / FreelanceEdgeTech, Inc.678.910.8017AIM: jmitchtxYahoo: jmitchtxMSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Original Message
