Key Benefit's of RKTracer Tool

A code coverage tool must be flexible enough to operate with existing build configurations to be effective. Even if existing applications or legacy code with no unit testing, integration testing and functional testing. Still, code coverage tools should allow you to manually run programs to test for coverage.

Utilizing the rktracer code coverage tool, You can analyze how much of your code is covered by these tests and provide precise coverage metrics regardless of how you test the program in runtime, whether via unit tests, integration tests, or functional tests, etc. or manual execution of the application.

Aside from being a simple tool for assessing coverage through tests, one of the most notable features of RKTracer code coverage is its ability to give delta coverage and code coverage for new lines of code. With this approach, the developer will quickly determine if the lines added or modified have been executed. This is particularly useful for comparing code coverage between current and previous builds.

RKTracer tool can integrates with IDEs, including command line and continuous integration environments.

The RKTracer Code Coverage Tool is designed in such a way that it requires very little knowledge of the compiler. That is, it is compatible with all compilers and cross-compilers’.

For C/C++ programming languages, If the compiler has -E for preprocessing, then there is a 99% chance that a compiler and cross compiler will work out of the box. If not, we can still come up with a strategy to make it work.
