Code Coverage

Code coverage is a measure used in software development to assess how much of a program's code is tested by automated tests. It helps developers understand which parts of the code are executed during testing and which are not. Higher code coverage means more of the code is being tested, potentially leading to fewer bugs and better software quality. However, it's important to remember that high code coverage doesn’t guarantee a flawless program; it simply indicates that many parts of the code were run during testing. Developers aim for a balance between coverage and the effectiveness of tests.
