Session Import and Export

While EclEmma is primarily designed for test runs and analysis within the Eclipse workbench, it provides import and export functionality.

Session Import

If your program is launched outside the Eclipse debugging environment, you might import EMMA coverage (*.ec) or session files (*.es) from these launches. This allows to study the coverage results directly in your source code. The Coverage Session import wizard can be activated form the File → Import... menu or from the Coverage view's context menu.

Import Dialog

The wizard dialog requires you to specify the following information:

Tip: If you keep a reference to the original coverage file (check the corresponding import option) you can simply reload the coverage data after a new program run. For this use the Refresh option from the context menu of the Coverage view or simply hit the F5 key.

Session Export

The session export wizard allows to export coverage sessions in one of these formats:

The Coverage Report export wizard can be activated form the File → Import... menu or from the Coverage view's context menu. There must be at least one coverage session available to use the export wizard.

Export Dialog

Select one of the existing sessions and the export format. Note that in any case the specified destination must point to a file in an existing folder.
