About lcov

LCOV is an extension of GCOV, a GNU tool which provides information about

what parts of a program are actually executed (i.e. "covered") while running

a particular test case. The extension consists of a set of Perl scripts

which build on the textual GCOV output to implement the following enhanced

functionality:

- HTML based output: coverage rates are additionally indicated using bar

graphs and specific colors.

- Support for large projects: overview pages allow quick browsing of

coverage data by providing three levels of detail: directory view,

file view and source code view.

LCOV was initially designed to support Linux kernel coverage measurements,

but works as well for coverage measurements on standard user space

applications.
