Integrated debugger and code coverage tool

摘要

An information processing system integrates a code coverage tool with a debugger. A debugging process is performed on a set of source code for an application program. A set of code coverage information associated with the set of source code is analyzed with respect to a set of debugging information. The set of code coverage information at least identifies a set of instructions that has been executed. A set of source code lines in the set of source code that correspond to the set of instructions that has been executed is identified based on the analyzing. A user is notified through a user interface that the set of instructions associated with the identified set of source code have been executed.

1. An information processing system for integrating a code coverage tool with a debugger, the information processing system comprising:
a computer memory; and a processor communicatively coupled to the computer memory, the processor configured to access the computer memory and to perform the following method: performing a session of operation of a debugger tool on a set of source code for an application program, the debugger tool having a debugger user interface; executing a set of instructions associated with the set of source code; contemporaneous with the session of operation of the debugger tool, operating a code coverage tool; monitoring and recording, with the code coverage tool, at least one instruction in the set of instructions associated with the set of source code, where the at least one instruction was executed during the session of operation of the debugger tool on the set of source code; identifying at least one source code line in the set of source code corresponding to the at least one instruction in the set of instructions that has been executed during the session of operation of the debugger tool on the set of source code; and visually displaying, in the debugger user interface, the identified at least one source code line.
