Title	Code Coverage Analysis for Fortran
Contributors	LS Chin (STFC Rutherford Appleton Lab.), DJ Worth (STFC Rutherford Appleton Lab.), C Greenough (STFC Rutherford Appleton Lab.)
Abstract	This report introduces the concept of coverage analysis and provides a list of coverage tools available for Fortran. It also contains a step-by-step tutorial on using gcov and LCOV, and presents a case study on performing coverage analysis on an existing Fortran library (The Finite Element Library). The tools and steps laid out in this report focus on code written in Fortran, however the concepts should apply equally to code written in other programming languages.
