Code coverage

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/library/j-cq01316/index.html?ca=drs

There are different types of coverage measurements, but most tools focus on line coverage, also known as statement coverage. In addition, some tools report branch coverage. A test coverage measurement is obtained by exercising a code base with a test harness and capturing data that corresponds to code having been "touched" throughout the lifetime of the test process. The data is then synthesized to produce a coverage report. In Java shops, the test harness is commonly JUnit and the coverage tool is usually something like Cobertura, Emma, or Clover, to name a few.
