Per test coverage of unit tests

[Dor Ma'ayan]

Hey,

As part of my research, I would like to get coverage measurements per unit test (which is equal to run a single test and check how it covers the whole system)

I followed the guides and I get the coverage in the .html format

I would like to get the different coverage metrics per method in an XML format or a text file which will help me to automate the process of data.

Is there a way to do that?

Many thanks!

This is not available out of the box, I'm afraid. But you can read the Clover's database and coverage recording files to extract the data you need. See:

Thanks for your response!

I'm trying to use the given API but it seems like the only thing I can get is the total number of statements\branches covered by in a single method. What I really look for is the number of statements covered in the whole projects by a single test method (in order to measure the effectiveness of the specific test method).

Does the API allows such a thing or do you know any other reasonable way to do so without running the test suite multiple times with a single test active each time?

Many thanks!

I'm not sure what do you want to achieve exactly. 

But please have a look at per-test coverage files - they track code coverage generated by each test separately (in addition to the global coverage file created).
