Code Coverage usage?

[dmconsulting1]

I am not finding much on what to do with the code coverage tab in project options. I added a dll and exe to it Include and ran my suite. What next?

When I did a search, it seems there used to be a rite up that no longer exists. Anyone know what I am talking about?

I think this is the write up you are wanting: https://web.archive.org/web/20190803021 ... Cover.aspx

I also saved it as a PDF in the event the Internet Archive project ever goes down (which hopefully never happens...).

Ok, thanks. Not sure how this ties to Ranorex or what the Code Coverage tab is for. I will read through this and see what I can figure out.

Ranorex Studio is based on SharpDevelop, an open-source .NET IDE, which this code coverage tab is inherited from. It is not really a Ranorex feature, but a code feature (read more about code coverage here). Since this feature has not been improved upon like the other features in Ranorex Studio, it is a bit dated. If you really need code coverage, open your solution in Visual Studio, and use their code coverage tool.

If having a more modern code coverage tool in Ranorex Studio for Ranorex tests, I recommend making a feature request here.

I hope this clarifies everything!

Cheers,
