- Generating the static coverage file.
The static coverage file is generated by Jtest or dotTEST in the .xml or .data format and contains metadata about user classes, methods, and lines. - Attaching the coverage agent to the application under test (AUT).
The coverage agent ships with Jtest and dotTEST, and allows you to monitor the code being executed when the AUT is running. - Configuring the Parasoft product that you use for application testing:
- SOAtest must be configured to connect to the coverage agent and collect runtime coverage, merge it with static coverage, and upload the data to DTP.
- Coverage Agent Manager (CAM) must be configured to connect to the coverage agent.
- Performing tests on the AUT with your Parasoft product:
- SOAtest will collect runtime coverage, merge it with static coverage, and upload the merger merged data to DTP.
- CAM will collect runtime coverage and test results, which must be manually downloaded and sent to DTP (see steps 5-7).
- (CAM only) Downloading test results and the dynamic (runtime) coverage.
The data can be downloaded when a test session is finished and stopped in CAM. - (CAM only) Uploading the test results to DTP.
Test results are uploaded via the DTP interface. - (CAM only) Merging the dynamic and static coverage data and sending it to DTP.
Static and dynamic coverage is merged and uploaded to DTP by Jtest or dotTEST. - Reviewing the application coverage on DTP.
Application coverage is displayed in the DTP's Coverage Explorer.
