NAME
       ct_cover - Common Test framework code coverage support module.


DESCRIPTION
       Common Test framework code coverage support module.

       This  module exports help functions for performing code coverage analy-
       sis.

EXPORTS
       add_nodes(Nodes) -> {ok, StartedNodes} | {error, Reason}

              Types:

                 Nodes = [atom()]
                 StartedNodes = [atom()]
                 Reason = cover_not_running | not_main_node

              Adds nodes to current cover test. Notice that this only works if
              cover support is active.

              To   have   effect,   this   function   is  to  be  called  from
              init_per_suite/1 (see common_test) before  any  tests  are  per-
              formed.

       cross_cover_analyse(Level, Tests) -> ok

              Types:

                 Level = overview | details
                 Tests = [{Tag, Dir}]
                 Tag = atom()
                 Dir = string()

              Accumulates cover results over multiple tests. See section Cross
              Cover Analysis in the Users's Guide.

       remove_nodes(Nodes) -> ok | {error, Reason}

              Types:

                 Nodes = [atom()]
                 Reason = cover_not_running | not_main_node

              Removes nodes from the current cover test.

              Call this function to stop cover test on nodes previously  added
              with ct_cover:add_nodes/1. Results on the remote node are trans-
              ferred to the Common Test node.
