NAME

ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Coverage - add a Makefile target to determine test coverage using Devel::Cover

VERSION

Version 0.01_01

SYNOPSIS

This module adds an additional target to the Makefile generated by ExtUtils::MakeMaker. The target, testcover, calls cover, the command-line script to generate test coverage statistics, to clean up any data from a previous run. It then runs the tests, as if make test was run, then calls cover again to generate the coverage statistics.

    # In Makefile.PL
    use ExtUtils::MakeMaker;
    use ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Coverage;

In your shell

    > perl Makefile.PL
    > make
    > make testcover

TODO

This is alpha quality code in terms of features. For this module to be usable for the as many modules as possible, the following additional features are needed.

MY::postamble

This module will have issues if the Makefile already has a My::postamble defined for it.

Devel::Cover and cover

This module doesn't care if Devel::Cover is installed or if cover is in the path. This should be changed.
