gcov
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. More information: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Invoking-Gcov.html.
-
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}}
