Devel::Cover vs. NCover vs. Python vs. jscoverage 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.

jscoverage tool, both node.js and JavaScript support. Enhance the coverage range. Use mocha to load the jscoverage module, then it works. jscoverage will append coverage info when you select list or spec or tap reporter in mocha. You can use covout to specify the reporter, like HTML, and detail. The detail reporter will print the uncovered code in the console directly. Mocha runs test case with jscoverage module. jscoverage will ignore files while listing in covignore file. jscoverage will output a report in HTML format. jscoverage will inject a group of functions into your module exports. default jscoverage will search covignore in the project root. jscoverage will copy exclude files from the source directory to the destination directory.
