How To...?Depending on the customer specific environment, Testwell CTC++ is used for many different testing scenarios, in several build environments, IDEs and tool chains. In this section, generic instructions are found as well as specific instructions for these kind of third party software.
WorkflowsMeasuring Code Coverage with Testwell CTC++ always works in three independent steps: instrumentation - testing - report generation. Depending on the environment, different ways to use the components of Testwell CTC++ are advantageous. They are described in these chapters.
Partial InstrumentationIn several situations, parts of the source code shall not be instrumented for coverage measurement, but still be compiled as a part of the project. Testwell CTC++ offers three ways to do that: On source file level, on function level, or inside the code.

Partial Instrumentation

In several situations, parts of the source code shall not be instrumented for coverage measurement, but still be compiled as a part of the project. Testwell CTC++ offers three ways to do that: On source file level, on function level, or inside the code.

Typical situations were a partial instrumentation is useful are:

Unit test code shall not be instrumented.
Code from standard headers shall be excluded.
The source has to be instrumented in portions for very small embedded targets.

Note: It is also possible to exclude source files from reports with ctcpost and its options -f and -nf.
