Cobertura for J2ME

Coverage tool for the Java(™) ME platform

Code Metrics

The purpose of this tool is to provide code coverage metrics such as

Line Coverage
Branch Coverage
Method Coverage

In addition, Cobertura for J2ME provides other source code metrics - assuming the source code is available - such as

Cyclomatic Complexity (CCN)
Non-Commenting Source Statement (NCSS)
JaVaDoc Comment (JVDC)

Line Coverage

This represent the percentage of statements that have been exercised by a test case suite.

Branch Coverage

The percentage of branches that have been exercised by a test case suite

Note: One of the known issues of Cobertura for J2ME is that the branch coverage is not fully computed. This is due to limitation in the intrumentation algorithm. Therefore, it should be interpreted with caution!

Method Coverage

The percentage of methods that have been exercised by a test case suite

Cyclomatic Complexity (CCN)

The avegare McCabe cyclomatic complexity per method.

Non-Commenting Source Statement (NCSS)

The purpose of this metric is to provide information regarding the size of methods. It represents the average number of statements per method.

JaVaDoc Comment (JVDC)

This metric represents the percentage of methods containing a javadoc comment.

Note: This metric does not give any information regarding the comment quality.
