How do we do code coverage of Java applets

[dhiraj...@gmail.com]

Hi all,

Is there a possible way of doing code coverage of Java Applets?
Any pointers or directions to a possible workaround or solution would be great.

Hi,

I haven't tried this myself but the appletviewer allows to give JVM
options with the -J parameter:


https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/appletviewer.html

This way you might be able to configure the JaCoCo agent for your
applet:

I don't think it is possible to run JaCoCo within a actual web browser
due to the security restrictions.
