GNU Xnee and automated code coverage

Saturday, November 8th, 2008 | Free Software, GNU, GNU Xnee, Software, geek

Have been looking in to some work done by Simon Josefsson. GNU Xnee can now do automated code coverage. Will integrate a bit better before I put it up on the new build machines I am setting up (one GNU x86 & one GNU PPC). GNU Xnee will report something like: http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/coverage/lib/gltests/test-c-ctype.c.gcov.frameset.html

I need to make sure that the test scripts work with Xvfb. I’ve only been executing them in a ‘normal’ X server. But since the building of Xnee documentation works fine in Xvfb it should be ok. And for those interested, Xnee builds eps, ps, pdf, jpg images from dia graphics using dia who needs an X server. And yes Xnee uses some other tools as well for that.

Nice way to spend your Saturday night, isn’t it
