Re: [Quantlib-dev] test-suite coverage

[Peter C. <pca...@gm...>]

Yes, it's quite ok, isn't it, 80% of the files covered, including the
experimental branch. One idea I had was that if people want to get
involved into coding but do not know where to start, they could add
some test cases for not-yet-covered code in an area they are
interested in. Another use case could be that if someone suspects a
bug in some function, she or he could check if the code is at all
covered by the tests (and if not, it wouldn't be too surprising that
something may go wrong with it). Theoretically speaking ;-)
