There are no OpenC++ tests checked in yet, I hope to check in something
useful this week. I did write some code to test the Buffer, Lexer, Parser,
and Encoding classes, though.

As to the code in general, just download a Synopsis snapshot from
http://synopsis.fresco.org/download/, the OpenC++ stuff is in
Synopsis/Parsers/Cxx (may be a bit unstable these days as I'm heavily
refactoring / rewriting).

I don't quite agree. There are currently no unit tests, so 'coverage'
could just mean to write them starting with the most central classes
first (Buffer, Lexer, PTree classes, Encoding, Environment, Parser).
