Coverage.py vs. JCov vs. Testwell CTC++ vs. dbForge Data Compare for MySQL Comparison Chart

Coverage.py is a tool for measuring code coverage of Python programs. It monitors your program, noting which parts of the code have been executed, then analyzes the source to identify code that could have been executed but was not. Coverage measurement is typically used to gauge the effectiveness of tests. It can show which parts of your code are being exercised by tests, and which are not. Use coverage run to run your test suite and gather data. However you normally run your test suite, and you can run your test runner under coverage. If your test runner command starts with “python”, just replace the initial “python” with “coverage run”. To limit coverage measurement to code in the current directory, and also find files that weren’t executed at all, add the source argument to your coverage command line. By default, it will measure line (statement) coverage. It can also measure branch coverage. It can tell you what tests ran which lines.

Testwell CTC++ is a powerful instrumentation-based code coverage and dynamic analysis tool for C and C++ code. With certain add-on components CTC++ can be used also on C#, Java and Objective-C code. Further, again with certain add-on components, CTC++ can be used to analyse code basically at any embedded target machines, also in very small ones (limited memory, no operating system). CTC++ provides Line Coverage, Statement Coverage, Function Coverage, Decision Coverage, Multicondition Coverage, Modified Condition/Decision Coverage (MC/DC), Condition Coverage. As a dynamic analysis tool, CTC++ shows the execution counters (how many times executed) in the code, i.e. more than a plain executed/not executed information. You can also use CTC++ to measure function execution costs (normally time) and to enable function entry/exit tracing at test time. CTC++ is easy to use.
