Execution data can 26 be collected and managed with the tasks 27 <a href="#coverage"><code>coverage</code></a>, 28 <a href="#agent"><code>agent</code></a>, 29 <a href="#dump"><code>dump</code></a> and 30 <a href="#merge"><code>merge</code></a>. Reports in different formats are 31 created with the <a href="#report"><code>report</code></a> task. For 32 <a href="offline.html">offline instrumentation</a> the task 33 <a href="#instrument"><code>instrument</code></a> can be used to prepare class 34 files. 35</p> 36 37<p class="hint"> 38 If you want to have line number information included in the coverage reports 39 or you want source code highlighting the class files of the test target must 40 be compiled with debug information. 41</p> 42 43<h2>Example</h2> 44 45<p> 46 The JaCoCo distribution contains a simple example how code coverage can be 47 added to a Ant based build. The 48 <a href="examples/build/build.xml">build script</a> compiles Java sources, 49 runs an simple Java program and creates a coverage report. The complete 50 example is located in the <code>./doc/examples/build</code> folder of the 51 distribution. 52</p> 53 54 55<h2>Prerequisites</h2> 56 57<p> 58 The JaCoCo Ant tasks require 59</p> 60 61<ul> 62 <li>Ant 1.7.0 or higher and</li> 63 <li>Java 1.5 or higher (for both, the Ant runner and the test executor).</li> 64</ul> 65 66 67<p>All tasks are defined in <code>jacocoant.jar</code> (which is part of the 68 distribution) and can be included in your Ant scripts with the usual 69 <code>taskdef</code> declaration: 70</p> 71 72<pre class="source lang-xml linenums"> 73<project name="Example" xmlns:jacoco="antlib:org.jacoco.ant"> 74 75 <taskdef uri="antlib:org.jacoco.ant" resource="org/jacoco/ant/antlib.xml"> 76 <classpath path="<i>path_to_jacoco</i>/lib/jacocoant.jar"/> 77 </taskdef> 78 79 ... 80 81</project> 82</pre> 83 84<p> 85 Alternatively you might also place the <code>jacocoant.jar</code> in your 86 Ant <code><i>ANT_HOME</i>/lib</code> folder. If you use the name space URI 87 <code>antlib:org.jacoco.ant</code> for JaCoCo tasks Ant will find them 88 automatically without the <code>taskdef</code> declaration above. 89</p> 90 91<p class="hint"> 92 Declaring a XML namespace for JaCoCo tasks is optional but always recommended 93 if you mix tasks from different libraries. All subsequent examples use the 94 <code>jacoco</code> prefix declared above. If you don't declare a separate 95 namespace the <code>jacoco</code> prefix must be removed from the following 96 examples. 97</p> 98 99<h2><a name="coverage">Task <code>coverage</code></a></h2> 100 101<p> 102 The standard Ant tasks to launch Java programs are <code>java</code>, <code>junit</code> and 103 <code>testng</code>. To add code coverage recording to these tasks they can 104 simply be wrapped with the <code>coverage</code> task as shown in the 105 following examples: 106</p> 107 108<pre class="source lang-xml linenums"> 109<jacoco:coverage> 110 <java classname="org.jacoco.examples.HelloJaCoCo" fork="true"> 111 <classpath> 112 <pathelement location="./bin"/> 113 </classpath> 114 </java> 115</jacoco:coverage> 116 117 118<jacoco:coverage> 119 <junit fork="true" forkmode="once"> 120 <test name="org.jacoco.examples.HelloJaCoCoTest"/> 121 <classpath> 122 <pathelement location="./bin"/> 123 </classpath> 124 </junit> 125</jacoco:coverage> 126</pre> 127 128<p> 129 Resulting coverage information is collected during execution and written 130 to a file when the process terminates. Note the <code>fork</code> attribute 131 above in the wrapped <code>java</code> task. 132</p> 133 134<p class="hint"> 135 The nested task always has to declare <code>fork="true"</code>, otherwise the 136 <code>coverage</code> task can't record coverage information and will fail. 137 In addition the <code>junit</code> task should declare 138 <code>forkmode="once"</code> to avoid starting a new JVM for every single test 139 case and decreasing execution performance dramatically (unless this is 140 required by the nature of the test cases). Note that 141 <code>forkmode="perTest"</code> or <code>forkmode="perBatch"</code> should not 142 be combined with <code>append="false"</code> as the execution data file is 143 overwritten with the execution of every test. 144</p> 145 146<p> 147 The coverage task must wrap exactly one task.
