clover capabilities

[Nava Polk]

Hello,

We are considering using clover together with sonar. Right now I'm working on POC in order to inspect clover.

I have some questions:

1. If I use clover patterns feature (which is the main reason why we are interested on moving from jacoco to clover), will this feature will work with the clover-sonar maven plugin?

2. Will clover with sonar work for integration tests as well?

3. Does the feature of patterns apply for integration tests?

Thank you.

regards Nava.

Could you explain what do you mean by "Clover patterns feature"? Inclusion/exclusion filters? Custom code contexts for methods and statments using regular expressions?

I mean the feature to exclude catch/simple methods clauses from code coverage analysis..

So we're talking about custom code contexts. I didn't test clover-sonar with them, however I don't see a reason why it couldn't work. The best is to just try it out. In case you find any problem - just post a question.
