[jira] Commented: (LUCENE-721) Code coverage reports

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-721?page=comments#action_12457080 ] 
            
Grant Ingersoll commented on LUCENE-721:
----------------------------------------

I'm not familiar w/ clover, but here's what I did, when trying out your patch (which works):

1. applied the patch :-)
2. Put clover.jar and clover.license (retrieved from the committers private repository into my ANT lib)
3. Ran "ant clover"  -- this passed and said clover is enabled
4.  Ran "ant test" 
5. ant generate-clover-reports
6. View the reports!  They look good and I think will prove to be useful, especially for people who are looking for how they can help make Lucene better.

Is there anyway to turn off clover other than removing the jar?  It seems like it takes quite a bit longer to run the tests and I was thinking I may just want to enable it when running nightly, but that most people wouldn't want it on by default even though they may have clover in there ANT lib.  
I wanted to do something like adding a property named run.clover (off by default) that could then be overridden by -Drun.clover=true on the command line, but I admit I don't see in ANT how to AND together the clover.present attribute with this new property.  The CONDITION and AVAILABLE tasks in ANT don't seem to allow for ANDing two existing properties, or perhaps I am missing something.  I admit, though, my ANT knowledge isn't what it used to be since I moved to Maven a long time ago, so if someone can chime in here it would be appreciated.

Otherwise, the patch looks good and I will commit it once we figure out whether being able to turn it off is important to people and how to do it.

> Hi all,
> We should be able to measure the code coverage of our unit testcases. I believe it would be very helpful for the committers, if they could verify before committing a patch if it does not reduce the coverage. 
> Furthermore people could take a look in the code coverage reports to figure out where work needs to be done, i. e. where additional testcases are neccessary. It would be nice if we could add a page to the Lucene website showing the report, generated by the nightly build. Maybe you could add that to your preview page (LUCENE-707), Grant?
> I attach a patch here that uses the tool EMMA to generate the code coverage reports. EMMA is a very nice open-source tool released under the CPL (same license as junit). The patch adds three targets to common-build.xml: 
> - emma-check: verifys if both emma.jar and emma_ant.jar are in the ant classpath 
> - emma-instrument: instruments the compiled code 
> - generate-emma-report: generates an html code coverage report 
> The following steps are neccessary in order to generate a code coverage report:
> - add emma.jar and emma_ant.jar to your ant classpath (download emma from http://emma.sourceforge.net/)
> - execute ant target 'emma-instrument' (depends on compile-test, so it will compile all core and test classes)
> - execute ant target 'test' to run the unit tests
> - execute ant target 'generate-emma-report'
> To view the emma report open build/test/emma/index.html

<condition> can be used with <and> with nested <isset>s (or other  
conditions here <http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/
