Just wondering what people are using for code coverage tools when using MS Visual Studio 2008 Pro. We are using the built-in MS test project and unit testing tool (the one that come pre-installed with MS VS 2008 pro)!

Good question. I used to use this tool pretty extensively when we were running team system. However, our dev team got downgraded to the pro-edition because of the cost and I've been looking for a good inexpensive option to get code coverage functionality back. – JohnFx Jun 28 '10 at 19:07

I would suggest that you go with NUnit for tests and NCover for coverage.

There's nothing wrong with the built-in testing tool in VS, especially if they already have a suite of tests using it... – Reed Copsey Nov 10 '09 at 18:44

VS coverage only supports statement level as for my experience. If you are looking for decision level coverage you'll need to look for better tools. – Varuna May 20 '10 at 00:56

I have also found the VS functionality to be the usual UI mess, and difficult to use. – mackenir Oct 26 '10 at 11:50

If you use the TestDriven.Net addin you will get a very good unit test runner and NCover thrown in as well. Get the personal developer version. This is realy the best ever addin for visual studio.
