Q. What are the known limitations of line coverage data ? | |||
*If you have a multi conditional line like if(test)?dothis:dothat, even if both conditions are not tested, line coverage counts this line as covered. | |||
*If you have if(this&that||whatever) , the line would be shown as covered for testing one condition even if the rest are not covered. | |||
*Inlined functions may appear as not being covered. | |||
*But the '''important point''' is these discrepancies would generate a statistically insignificant variations in the coverage %. | |||
*When we pick up critical files we should not only pay attention to uncovered lines, but also to multi branch lines as well. | |||
