5.11 Measuring Code Coverage

5.11.1 Measuring Code Coverage
Code coverage is the function to indicate the 'digestion' degree of test, i.e., "to what degree tests have been carried out on
software code (pass)."
Instruction execution information is displayed at C/C++ and assembler levels.
This function collects instruction execution information from a program without causing it to break. Therefore, the realtime
capability of the user program will not be lost.
The coverage result is updated upon a break.
The E100 emulator supports C0: Instruction coverage rate and C1: Branch coverage rate.
Table 5.27 Code coverage definition
C0: Instruction coverage rate
C1: Branch coverage rate
The E100 emulator comes with up to a 2-Mbyte code coverage memory when using the C0 + C1 level coverage, and up to a 1-
Mbyte code coverage memory when using the C1 level coverage.
With initial settings, the code coverage memory is allocated automatically to addresses in the ROM and RAM areas in this
order.
