I recommend Cobertura for measuring test coverage. You can plug it into ant, maven, hudson, eclipse etc.

I recommend Sonar, see the hyperlink for how it shows code coverage (apart from doing many other handy things).

+1 Sonar isn't exactly what you're looking for, but it can do the job and *much, much more*. – Qwerky Jan 24 '11 at 14:49

You can try to use Cobertura, it creates nice reports, and is easy to use in conjunction with junit, using ant or maven.

A great tool for reporting is Sonar, which integrates coverage tests, but also tools like checkstyle, findbugs, and provides a nice interface to analyse the outputs. It is also very easy to setup, definitively worth trying.

I strongly recommend taking a look at Code Pro tools. It's for Eclipse. And it contains a lot more than code coverage, it is code analyzer, junit test generator, dependency analyzer and so on...
