Hiall,

I'm happy to announce that Canoo WebTest is now covered 100% by its selftests. You can explore this under http://webtest.canoo.com/webtest/clover/index.html

The coverage is achieved by a combination of unit tests and functional selftests. No manual test is involved.

There are a few classes that were excluded from the statistics. These are classes that I do not expect to be covered 100%: - The selftest dummy webapp is very likely also covered 100% but I haven't found an easy way to sneak in the report. - The httpunit package is only a playground without any functional purpose. - The security package contains wrappers around the JDK JSSE implementation. I just didn't take the challenge to test this, yet. Any help is appreciated. - The "Throw" class in the "self" package is a weird thing. It encapsulates the testing of exception handling. Testing its error scenarios is fairly complicated as would involve tweaking JUnit. - Append.java should actually be removed from WebTest as it does not belong there.(Tool-Task for testing XSLT with WebTest) - AllTests to allow uncovered points of starting TestSuite execution.

I deliberately included the JUnit test classes. That helped me finding tests that were not included in any suite and test-methods that re-named in order to suppress their execution (like "testMe()" to "_testMe()").

Overall, the exercise took some time but was not too complicated. Seeing the green bar growing was a good motivation. During the exercise, it appeared to me that untested code is very likely to be duplicated or even multiplied. Especially centralizing the error handling improved both, coverage and code appearance. Re-visiting the code for coverage purposes certainly improved the codebase.

Finally, I'd like to emphasize that 100% test coverage has nothing to with "code complete" and certainly not "error-free".

cheers Mittie
