Clover coverage on Java instrumented classes

[Penny Dutson]

Can Clover get coverage on the instrumented classes created using GWT?

[Marek Parfianowicz · Accepted solution]

Yes, but it has some limitations. Due to the nature of GWT which translates Java to JavaScript for code parts which are supposed to run in a web browser, such code parts if instrumented by Clover won't translate.

It means that you have to:

• either instrument server side code only
• or instrument everything but run application in a framework simulating GWT (like gwt-test-utils).
