Description

A coverage reporting front-end for GCC's gcov tool, producing reports that show which lines, functions, or branches were exercised by tests.

Use it in development and CI to understand test coverage and find untested code. Coverage numbers are evidence, not a guarantee of correctness, so they should guide review rather than replace it.

How to run

Commands: lcov
