[…] coverage tools for JavaScript exist: ProtoCov, the commercial JavaScript coverage Validator, and some sort of FireBug add on. But these are noted for future investigation as I have not used these. If you have used […]

Saw another tool for JavaScript code coverage in a link to my page, and it’s got command line, and line reporting!

Well, it uses the default table structure given from Firebug. So, if that feature gets added into Firebug, it’ll be usable here. I don’t think I want to be the one to add resizeable columns though.

You could buy a higher resolution monitor? :P

do you have a place where request features or submit bugs? it will be good if the columns size would be resizable, i have some calls to long uri scripts (.net weresource.axd with a chunk of encoded data on the parameters) and i’m not capable of view the functions called.

Well, it doesn’t report on nested functions inside of objects. So, for example, say you have two identical functions located inside two different objects.

YAHOO.util.Dom.getStyle()
DAVIDBURNS.getStyle()

would unfortunately both be reported as getStyle in the current plugin.

This is really good tool. I really like it as I am trying to automate any and all items that i can.

I do have one question though. I ran a selenium test and one of the items that code coverage picked up showed a function in both Function Called and Function Uncalled.

Why is this?

Thats my only question but its really good!

It’s currently in the sandbox. They won’t make it public until it has a certain amount of reviews.

Cool extension. Why don’t you publish it in Mozilla Ads-ons page?

Hi,

I have a requirement (may be strange) as follows:

- Execute blackbox test cases using GUI
- Hopefully, there is a tool that can record all my actions while I execute blackbox test and play back.
- The tool should be able to export the recorded instructions as HTTPUNIT tests.
- I need in particular HTTPUNIT or any other tests basically to see the code coverage of JSP/JAVA files.

Is there anything for this?
Please help
