Test coverage

Test coverage

Test coverage refers to the percentage of software requirements that are tested by black-box testing for a system or application. This is in contrast with code coverage, which examines the inner workings of a program and measures the degree to which the source code of a program is executed when a test suite is run. Measuring test coverage makes it possible to quickly detect and eliminate defects, to create a more comprehensive test suite. and to remove tests that are not relevant for the given requirements.
