Coverage.py vs. NCover vs. Python vs. statsmodels Comparison Chart

NCover Desktop is a Windows application that helps you collect code coverage statistics for .NET applications and services. After coverage is collected, Desktop displays charts and coverage metrics in a browser-based GUI that allows you to drill all the way down to your individual lines of source code. Desktop also allows you the option to install a Visual Studio extension called Bolt. Bolt offers built-in code coverage that displays unit test results, timings, branch visualization and source code highlighting right in the Visual Studio IDE. NCover Desktop is a major leap forward in the ease and flexibility of code coverage tools. Code coverage, gathered while testing your .NET code, shows the NCover user what code was exercised during the test and gives a specific measurement of unit test coverage. By tracking these statistics over time, you gain a concrete measurement of code quality during the development cycle.

statsmodels is a Python module that provides classes and functions for the estimation of many different statistical models, as well as for conducting statistical tests and statistical data exploration. An extensive list of result statistics is available for each estimator. The results are tested against existing statistical packages to ensure that they are correct. The package is released under the open-source Modified BSD (3-clause) license. statsmodels supports specifying models using R-style formulas and pandas DataFrames. Have a look at dir(results) to see available results. Attributes are described in results.__doc__ and results methods have their own docstrings. You can also use numpy arrays instead of formulas. The easiest way to install statsmodels is to install it as part of the Anaconda distribution, a cross-platform distribution for data analysis and scientific computing. This is the recommended installation method for most users.
