Utility commands to manipulate and analyze LCOV tracefiles blazingly fast.
LCOV is a graphical front-end for coverage testing tool gcov. It collects gcov data for multiple source files and stores them into the file called as "tracefile".
The purpose of this crate is to operate the LCOV tracefile faster than the original LCOV Perl implementation.
cargo install lcov-util
Comparing the execution of merging LCOV tracefiles, between 3 programs:
lcov 1.16
: Latest released version ofLCOV
lcov master
: Latest development version ofLCOV
lcov-merge
:lcov-merge
executable fromlcov-util
v0.2.0
with 3 datasets (generated by mkinfo
tool from LCOV repository):
- small: merging 5 small tracefiles (2 tests, 5 source files)
- medium: merging 5 medium tracefiles (3 tests, 50 source files)
- large: merging 5 large tracefiles (2 tests, 500 source files)
small | medium | large | |
---|---|---|---|
lcov 1.16 |
0.22s | 2.41s | 21.69s |
lcov master |
0.23s | 2.30s | 21.34s |
lcov-merge |
0.01s | 0.21s | 2.73s |
In this benchmark, lcov-merge
is 10-20x faster than lcov 1.16
/ lcov-master
.
