Talk:Java code coverage tools

notable because:

• more mature, and popular than cobertura, or clover for Eclipse (software):
  • http://marketplace.eclipse.org/node/264#.USyI28W_Ppt
  • http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/ecobertura#.USyI2MW_Pps
  • http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/atlassian-clover-eclipse#.USyJwsW_Pps
• replaced emma in eclipse EclEmma plugin
• replaced cobertura as default coverage tool for sonar
• 700+ installs / month for jenkins, strong growth: https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/JaCoCo+Plugin

None of those reasons count towards WP:NSOFT. I've nominated the article for deletion via AfD. Jarkeld (talk) 18:31, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

you want to nominate the other tools as well, like emma, clover, and cobertura? or you are happy with the notability? --ThurnerRupert (talk) 21:26, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

Haven't looked at them yet, perhaps in the near future. Jarkeld (talk) 23:29, 1 March 2013 (UTC)

it stands out of the crowd in two aspects. only bytecode one (amongst cobertura, emma) supporting java 7 and up. only one supporting online instrumentation and collection and merge of the results (amongst cobertura, emma, clover). rechecked, it is in the three major java application development environments, Eclipse, Idea, Netbeans. --ThurnerRupert (talk) 02:23, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

As per recommendation on WP:NSOFT - simple search of "EclEmma" on Google books will give a lot of books, which mention EclEmma and thus JaCoCo. Such well known books as "Java Power Tools" doesn't count as well? Mandrikov (talk) 01:41, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

None of the sources mentioned in the article are significant coverage in reliable third party sources. EclEmma + JaCoCo yields 1 link on google books and it is a trivial mention. I'd like to invite you to actually participate in the AfD discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/JaCoCo. Jarkeld (talk) 01:15, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
