I am trying to measure my code coverage using jacoco, but I dont understand the meaning of the yellow lines. The document says that it is for a condition which is not fully covered. But see the coverage snapshot I got - it is evident that the condition is hit because the subsequent line is green, so why is the condition marked as yellow?

screen-shot

Also, if you can point to a quick reference to what all coverage items that jacoco can show (besides line coverage) that will help a lot.

Take a look here: http://www.eclemma.org/jacoco/trunk/doc/counters.html:

Partial coverage: Only a part of the instruction in the line have been executed

To turn green the condition should have been performed twice, one with false and one with true result. Probably your args.equals("0") always is true.
