Hi Reto,

I understood your point of view but to me the problem I'm talking about
could be "easily" solved for a better branch coverage and know what is the
real missed branches report.

possible?...

To follow up on Paul's answer, I would go as far as to say that I test my
code in order to feel comfortable that it actually does what it should do.
Thus, I can very well live with 90% coverage if I know what the missing 10%
are rather than testing for the sake of making a good impression with a 100%
report.
