Or feel free to let Devel::Cover generate the reports. Devel::Cover comes with a program to translate gcov output into the format that Devel::Cover understands. This is used to generate full Perl 5 coverage reports. See http://www.test-smoke.org/perlcover.shtml If coverage data are available for any other languages involved in Parrot then similar conversions should be fairly simple. And, although I personally prefer a "make cover" target, the Perl world seems to have settled on "make testcover". -- Paul Johnson - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pjcj.net
