(1) Make sure there is a Copyright notice on all visible files. (2) Make sure all years in which the file has been modified are listed. (3) Make sure the format is consistent, i.e. separate consecutive years with a dash, not a comma. When Stephane changed starteam.html it has been 2001 in France but 2002 in Australia - does that mean we add 2002 to the Copyright line or not? ;-) git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/ant/core/trunk@270652 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

<h2>Introduction</h2>
|

|

<p>This task runs the tools from the JProbe suite.<br>

|

|

<p>This task has been written using JProbe Suite Server Side 3.0.</p>
|

|
||
<p>It is highly recommended to read the JProbe documentation to understand
|
||
the values of the command line arguments described below. This
|
||
document is less complete than the manual, it only gives the basic information
|

and is not intended as a replacement to the manual.

<h4>sourcepath</h4>

<h4>reference (only applies to format="xml")</h4>
|
||
|
||
<p>A reference is a set of classes whose coverage information will be checked
|

against. Since Coverage is only able to give you information about loaded
|
||
classes, it will only report classes that were at least used in some points in
|
||
your tests,
|
||
therefore you will not be able to know what classes are not exercised at all
|
||
during your tests. The reference is an additional feature that will analyze the
|
||
bytecode of all classes in a given classpath that match some filters and modify
|
||
the XML report accordingly. In short, it will:
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>remove the classes that do not exists in the reference classpath. (For
|
||
example you might have in your report some helper test classes that you do
|
||
not want to appear in the report, but are unable to filter without adding
|
||
hundred of filters for all your classes).</li>
|
||
<li>add classes that exists in the reference set and match the filters but are
|
||
not reported.</li>
|
||
<li>remove abstract methods that are incorrectly reported in JProbe 3.0
|
||
(should be fixed in a later SP)</li>
|

<li>remove classes/methods that do not match the filters.</li>

would generate the report of the file <tt>merge.jpc</tt> and write it to <tt>result.xml</tt>
|
||
using the source path <tt>src</tt>. As well, it will modify the result.xml by
|
||
analyzing all classes in the <tt>./bin/classes</tt> that are port of the package
|

<tt>com.mycompany</tt> except the method that start by <tt>test</tt> from the class <tt>MyClass</tt>.

<h3>Recommendation</h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you generate your main code and your testcases in a separate directory,
|
||
say bin/classes and test/classes. You should mostly end up with a reference such
|
||
as:</p>
|
||
<blockquote>
|
||
<pre><reference>
|
||
<classpath path="./bin/classes"/>
|
||
</reference></pre>
|
||
</blockquote>
|
||
<p>With such a reference, your XML report will be cleaned up against parasite
|
||
classes from your testcases (that as a common practice, generally match the
|
||
exact package structure of the class you exercise).</p>
|
||
<h3>HTML reports</h3>
|
||
<p>You will find in Ant etc directory a stylesheet called coverage-frames.xsl.
|
||
This file can be used to generate a framed report a la javadoc similar to the
|
||
one for JUnit. It needs either Xalan 1.2.2 or Xalan 2.x.</p>
|
||
<p>Xalan 1.2.2 (you must have xalan.jar and bsf.jar in your classpath)
|
||
</p>
|
||
<pre><style processor="xalan" in="./reports/xml/results.xml" out="./reports/html/dummy.file"
|
||
style="${ant.home}/etc/coverage-frames.xsl">
|
||
<param name="output.dir" expression="'${basedir}/reports/html'"/>
|
||
</style></pre>
|
||
<p>Xalan 2.x (note the parameter without single quote)</p>
|
||
<pre><style processor="trax" in="./reports/xml/results.xml" out="./reports/html/dummy.file"
|
||
style="${ant.home}/etc/coverage-frames.xsl">
|
||
<param name="output.dir" expression="${basedir}/reports/html"/>
|
||
</style></pre>
