When it is time to be sure about the reach of your tests for your application’s code base, code coverage comes in as the best bet. Code coverage tools paint the picture of code that has been covered during the tests by displaying color-coded annotated HTML pages that provide summary information and simplified navigation through most and least covered modules and functions. Typically the coverage statistics cover the classes, methods, blocks and lines in the application code.

Code coverage tests the "quality" of your test cases and provides sufficient information for writing new test cases. As a white box testing strategy, it helps in determining if sufficient testing has been done or not. The code coverage analysis report reveals the areas of the code that have not been exercised during testing.
