Method and system for code coverage

A native library for providing code coverage for programs coded in a computer language, the computer language being used to code one or more classes, the classes being used to instantiate one or more objects, the classes defining methods to be performed on the objects, the classes further defining events to which the objects respond, the native library containing computer code comprising one or more instructions for

• loading a list of class names for which the code coverage is desired;
• registering event handler functions for an event corresponding to the preparation of a class for loading and one or more breakpoints;
• and
• receiving breakpoints for one or more executable units in each class from the list of classes,
• wherein an environment for the computer language generates the events corresponding to the setting of the breakpoints and preparation of a class for loading.

A machine-readable medium including instructions executable by the processor for providing code coverage in a computer language, the computer language being used to code one or more classes, the classes being used to instantiate one or more objects, the classes defining methods to be performed on the objects, the classes further defining events to which the objects respond, comprising one or more instructions for

• loading a list of class names for which the code coverage is desired;
• registering event handler functions for an event corresponding to the preparation of a class for loading and one or more breakpoints;
• and
• setting breakpoints for one or more executable units in each class from the list of classes,
• wherein an environment for the computer language generates the events corresponding to the setting of the breakpoints and preparation of a class for loading.
