Installing the Clover Ant Tasks
Clover provides a set of Ant tasks to make project integration easy. To make these tasks available in your project build file, you need to:
- load the 'cloverlib.xml' antlib by adding the following line to your build file:
<taskdef resource="cloverlib.xml" classpath="/path/to/clover.jar"/>
Make sure you change the above "/path/to/clover.jar" to point directly to your clover.jar.
For further options, see also Ant Installation Options.
The tasks
| <clover-setup> |
Installs Clover as the Ant build.compiler. This means that Clover will be invoked whenever the Ant <javac> is used, resulting in instrumented compilation. |
| <clover-report> |
Produces coverage reports in different formats. |
| <clover-html-report> |
Generates a HTML report with default settings. |
| <clover-pdf-report> |
Generates a PDF report with default settings. |
| <clover-historypoint> |
Records a coverage history point for use in historical coverage reports. |
| <clover-merge> |
Merges several Clover databases into one, to allow for combined reports to be generated. |
| <clover-check> |
Tests project/package code coverage against criteria, optionally failing the build if the criteria are not met. |
| <clover-log> |
Reports coverage results to the console at various levels. |
| <clover-instr> |
Allows manual instrumentation of source files, for cases where the normal <clover-setup> integration approach can't be used. |
| <clover-clean> |
Deletes the coverage database and/or associated coverage records. |
| <clover-env> |
This task should be used for troubleshooting and debugging Clover installation problems only. It outputs Clover version and classpath information. |
