TeCReVis: A Tool for Test Coverage and Test Redundancy Visualization

  • Conference paper
Testing – Practice and Research Techniques (TAIC PART 2010)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNPSE,volume 6303))

Abstract

This tool paper presents the feature set, graphical user interface and also the implementation details of a test coverage and test redundancy visualization tool, called TeCReVis. The tool is an Eclipse plug-in and supports JUnit test suites helping testers in analyzing the coverage information more effectively in a visual way compared to traditional text-based coverage tools.
