ABSTRACT:
A method and system for determining code coverage of one or more software modules is disclosed. The disclosed method and system uses an enumeration module, a code coverage module and an analysis module. The enumeration module is used to identify portions of the code in the software module for which code coverage data is desired. The code coverage module collects code coverage data when the software module is loaded. The analysis module summarizes and reports results of the collected code coverage data.
