Abstract

See full text

A computer implemented method analyzes an execution of a program. The method partitions the program into program components such as basic blocks and procedures. A source or executable representation of the program is instrumented to collect test coverage data. In addition, a flow graph representing the program components is generated. The program is then executed to collect test coverage data. Using the test coverage data and the flow graph, the program is partitioned into executed and unexecuted components. The number of instructions in each unexecuted program component is counted. Thus, a list of the unexecuted program components can be presented according to a decreasing order of the number of unexecuted instructions in the unexecuted program components.
