CakePHP Code Coverage for Group Tests
Posted on 2/6/08 by Tim Koschützki
Hey folks (what the heck, do we always start our posts with that phrase?),
Yeah so the new code coverage in the cake core is also capable of tracking the amount of code lines covered in each test case file when running a group test. Just form your groups, hop into the testsuite, run the group and then run the code coverage analyzation.
Here is an example output for one of the core groups:
I did not put this in the first post about Code Coverage Analysis in CakePHP, because this was an enhancement committed a few days after the initial code coverage implementation.

@deizel: I've got same problem, but found solution on:
http://www.nabble.com/How-to-get-code-coverage-analysis-working--td20345513.html
Changing line 115 of /cake/tests/lib/code_coverage_manager.php to
xdebug_start_code_coverage(XDEBUG_CC_UNUSED);
fixed the problem.
@Przemyslaw: I just tried this on Ubuntu 9.10, thanks a lot!

this is great, but even until now, i still find it a pain to install xdebug properly under certain configurations.
windows 2000/xp just seems to crash apache, and, under ubuntu, firefox just seems to want to save the code coverage page as a blank file.
don't get me wrong, it's an amazing feature! it's just that it is not that easy to get working correctly that quickly in every case.. given the resources available.
