Code Coverage
Tcov, a source code coverage analysis and statement-by-statement profiling tool, comes as a standard utility with Sun Studio suite. Tcov generates exact counts of the number of times each statement in a program is executed and annotates source code to add instrumentation.
The tcov utility gives information on how often a program executes segments of code. It produces a copy of the source file, annotated with execution frequencies. The code can be annotated at the basic block level or the source line level. As the statements in a basic block are executed the same number of times, a count of basic block executions equals the number of times each statement in the block is executed. The tcov utility does not produce any time-based data.

Famous quotes containing the word code:
“Motion or change, and identity or rest, are the first and second secrets of nature: Motion and Rest. The whole code of her laws may be written on the thumbnail, or the signet of a ring.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
