linux下codecoverage工具gcov/lcov使用

gcov是linux下进行代码覆盖测试的工具，随着gcc一起发布。lcov是gcov的图形化前端工具，根据gcov生成的内容，处理成一颗完整的html树，包括概述、覆盖率百分百、图标等轻便直观的内容。下面使用gcov和lcov进行一个简单的demo测试。

1.用gcov选项编译c/c++文件

test.cpp

#include 
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
        cout<<"hello gcov"<

编译： g++ -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage test.cpp -o test

(也可以把-fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage加入到makefile里面)

生成目标文件test和对应的test.gcno文件

.
|-- test
|-- test.cpp
`-- test.gcno

0 directories, 3 files

2.收集信息

执行该程序：./test

生成gcda文件

.
|-- test
|-- test.cpp
|-- test.gcda
`-- test.gcno

0 directories, 4 files

gcov生成覆盖信息：gcov test.cpp

.
|-- basic_ios.h.gcov
|-- char_traits.h.gcov
|-- ios_base.h.gcov
|-- iostream.gcov
|-- locale_facets.h.gcov
|-- ostream.gcov
|-- test
|-- test.cpp
|-- test.cpp.gcov
|-- test.gcda
`-- test.gcno

0 directories, 11 files

可以看到test.cpp.gcov的信息

        -:    0:Source:test.cpp
        -:    0:Graph:test.gcno
        -:    0:Data:test.gcda
        -:    0:Runs:1
        -:    0:Programs:1
        -:    1:#include 
        -:    2:using namespace std;
        1:    3:int main()
        -:    4:{
       11:    5:    for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
       10:    6:        cout<<"hello gcov"<

左边的数字表示某行执行了几次

3.用lcov转换成html可视化内容

lcov --capture --directory . --output-file testHtml.info --test-name testHtml

生成对应的info文件

Capturing coverage data from .
Found gcov version: 4.4.6
Scanning . for .gcda files ...
Found 1 data files in .
Processing test.gcda
Finished .info-file creation

.
|-- test
|-- test.cpp
|-- test.gcda
|-- test.gcno
`-- testHtml.info

0 directories, 5 files

生成html内容到result文件夹：genhtml -o result testHtml.info

Reading data file hello_test.info
genhtml: ERROR: cannot read file hello_test.info!
-bash-4.1# genhtml -o result testHtml.info
