-----------

This library aims to have full coverage of the reachable lines and branches.

To create a test coverage report, configure with `--enable-coverage` (use of GCC is necessary):

$ ./configure --enable-coverage

Run the tests:

$ make check

$ gcovr --exclude 'src/bench*' --print-summary

To create a HTML report with coloured and annotated source code:

$ gcovr --exclude 'src/bench*' --html --html-details -o coverage.html
