Does anyone know of tools (public domain or not) that construct test coverage analysis and statement-by-statement profile for software? The target programming language is C and C++. Is there anything else that would allow people to do this? -- Didier Tallot Gip-Altair/INRIA tallot@bdblues.altair.fr Domaine de Voluceau ...!mcvax!inria!bdblues!tallot BP105 Rocquencourt 78153 Le Chesnay Cedex phone: +33 (1) 39 63 56 25 France

If you're using a UNIX-based c compiler, you probably have profiling built into the compiler already. Around here, the "-p" and "-pg" options to cc do function profiling (4.3-tahoe). On a sun, "-a" + the "tcov" command may do what you want. Many aftermarket products exist - testing is a well-studied, heavily marketed domain for tools. One testing newsletter that is here beside me is from Software Research Inc, a California place. 415-957-1441 or 800-942-SOFT. They sell test coverage tools. I know really nothing more about them and have no experience with the company. chris... -- Christopher Lott \/ Dept of Comp Sci, Univ of Maryland, College Park, MD 20742 cml@cs.umd.edu /\ 4122 AV Williams Bldg 301.405.2721 <standard disclaimers>
