Question

I was just wondering what is the difference between the statment coverage/decision coverage/condition coverage from the following code.

public static void main (String args [])

{    
char letter=' ';    
String word= "", vowels = "aeiouAEIOU";    
int i, numVowels= 0, numCons= 0, wordLength= 0;    
word = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Input a word: " );    
if (word.length() > 10 || word.length() < 3)
   word = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Input another word: ");    
wordLength= word.length();    
for (i = 0; i < wordLength; i++)    
   letter = word.charAt(i);    
   if (vowels.indexOf(letter) != -1)    
   numVowels = numVowels+1;    
numCons = wordLength-numVowels;    
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Number of vowels: "+ numVowels);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, + " Consonants: " + numCons); 

}

P.S. There are no braces in any of the if statements.

There should be braces in the For loop. Is that correct? – Meetu Singh May 05 '14 at 02:37 — Meetu Singh, May 05 '14 at 02:37

Different tools use a slightly different terminology to explain these numbers . For ex jacoco uses the following terminology http://www.eclemma.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/counters.html

It might be helpful if you could tell us the tool that you are using to calculate the coverage. We can then apply it to your code
