> Code coverage analysis and profiling tool that discovers untested parts of a program.

> Also displays a copy of source code annotated with execution frequencies of code segments.

|
- Generate a coverage report named `file.cpp.gcov`:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Write individual execution counts for every basic block:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov --all-blocks {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
- Write branch frequencies to the output file and print summary information to `stdout` as a percentage:
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov --branch-probabilities {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Write branch frequencies as the number of branches taken, rather than the percentage:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov --branch-counts {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Do not create a `gcov` output file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov --no-output {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Write file level as well as function level summaries:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`gcov --function-summaries {{path/to/file.cpp}}`
|
