Javascript code coverage MIA

Wednesday, October 4th, 2006

Code coverage tools for Javascript are thin on the ground. In fact, I have only found one - JavaScript Coverage Validator - and it isn’t even out of closed beta yet.

Am I to think that all those millions of lines of Javascript out there on all those Web 2.0 sites that espouse agile practies with TDD influences don’t have code coverage? Sure, some may have unit testing but unit testing without code coverage is a less than ideal situation. You simply don’t know if you have tested all functions and all paths in your functions. Unit testing and code coverage go hand in hand, they back each other up.

Do you have a solution to code coverage for your Javascript?
