Java vs. Lua vs. Vyper vs. froglogic Coco Comparison Chart

Lua is a powerful, efficient, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. It supports procedural programming, object-oriented programming, functional programming, data-driven programming, and data description. Lua combines simple procedural syntax with powerful data description constructs based on associative arrays and extensible semantics. Lua is dynamically typed, runs by interpreting bytecode with a register-based virtual machine, and has automatic memory management with incremental garbage collection, making it ideal for configuration, scripting, and rapid prototyping. Lua has a deserved reputation for performance. To claim to be "as fast as Lua" is an aspiration of other scripting languages. Several benchmarks show Lua as the fastest language in the realm of interpreted scripting languages. Lua is fast not only in fine-tuned benchmark programs, but in real life too. Substantial fractions of large applications have been written in Lua.

Coco® is a multi-language code coverage tool. Automatic source code instrumentation is used to measure test coverage of statements, branches and conditions. Executing a test suite against an instrumented application produces data that can later be analyzed. This analysis can be used to understand how much of the source code has been hit by tests, which additional tests need to be written, how the test coverage changed over time and more. Identify redundant tests, untested or dead code. Identify the impact of a patch on the code and code coverage & your testing. Coco supports statement coverage, branch coverage, MC/DC and other levels. Linux, Windows, RTOS and others. Using GCC, Visual Studio, embedded compilers and more. Choice of different report formats (text, HTML, XML, JUnit, Cobertura). Coco can also be integrated with various build, test and CI frameworks like JUnit, Jenkins and SonarQube.
