Squish-Code-Coverage – SOFT-LUTIONS LTD

A complete, cross-platform, cross-compiler code coverage tool chain allowing to analyze the code coverage of C, C++, C# and Tcl code.

Squish Coco utilizes source code instrumentation to analyze the applications’ source code. No changes to the source code are necessary. Executing a test suite against an instrumented application produces data that Squish Coco can analyze. This analysis can be used to ensure that complete test coverage is achieved since it:

Finds and highlights untested code sections.
Finds redundant tests (i.e., tests that merely duplicate others).
Finds unreachable code.
Computes the optimal order of test execution that will maximize the overall coverage.
Compares the test coverage of two application versions or test executions.

Squish Coco can target applications running on Linux, Windows, Mac OS X and other platforms.

Squish Coco is available for the following programming languages:

C
C++
C#
Tcl

Squish Coco can be used at every stage of testing and with every testing method (unit tests, automated tests, manual tests, etc.). Furthermore, Squish Coco can merge multiple execution reports to provide advanced analysis.

Coverage analysis can be performed at different levels ranging from function coverage to condition/decision coverage.

Features

The main features of Squish Coco:

Post-execution coverage analysis at different levels.
CoverageBrowser—a sophisticated GUI tool which displays and manages coverage analysis data and results. (Available to commercial licensees only.)
CoverageScanner—this tool analyzes and instruments C, C++, C# and Tcl applications. It works with GCC, Visual Studio, MinGW, Cygwin and clang out of the box. Support for other compilers can be configured through user-editable configuration files.
An optional add-in for Microsoft® Visual Studio— it generates code coverage configurations for all available C, C++ and C# projects directly inside the Visual Studio IDE.
Manual validation and commenting.
Comparison of test coverage between different test executions and application revisions. This makes it straightforward to improve or add new tests to the new version to maintain the level of coverage.
Calculation of optimal execution order to maximize coverage in limited time.
Choice of different report formats (text, HTML, XML, JUnit, Cobertura).
Integrations with various build, test and CI frameworks like JUnit, Jenkins and SonarQube.
“Black box” testing mode (have end users collect data without providing a view into the source code).

Coverage Levels

Squish Coco supports the following coverage levels:

Function coverage
Line coverage
Branch coverage
Condition/decision coverage

For easier analysis the source code is colored depending on whether a line, branch or condition is covered – or not:

coverage-colors

Supported Platforms

Pre-build Squish Coco packages are available for the following platforms:

Linux (32- and 64-bit)
Windows (32- and 64-bit)
Mac OS X (32- and 64-bit)
Solaris, AIX and other UNIX systems (on request)

In addition customers can target additional platforms through setup of a configuration file for a cross-compiler:

Embedded Linux
Embedded Windows
Mobile operating systems
Real-time operating systems (RTOS)

License Model

Squish Coco’s licensing is user node-locked and per programming language (C/C++, C# and Tcl). This means that each Squish Coco license is valid only for one specific user on one specific physical or virtual machine and for the licensed programming language(s). If you run several copies of a virtual machine, each of these counts as a separate node.

Each Squish Coco node license includes a One Year Support & Updates Subscription which provides:

Unlimited e-mail support.
Access to all bugfix, minor, and major releases of Squish Coco.
