Question

Cobertura’s documentation gives the following example to show how instrumentation can be done on classes inside a jar file that is on Cobertura’s classpath.

<cobertura-instrument todir="${instrumented.dir}">
    ...........       
    <fileset dir="../lib">
        <include name="myjar.jar" />
    </fileset>
    ...........
</cobertura-instrument>

This approach will instrument all the classes inside the specified jar.

How can I instrument only specified class files inside the jar?

Answer 1

The cobertura-instrument task has two sub-tasks which may do the trick (didn’t have the possibility to try it out):

<cobertura-instrument todir="${instrumented.dir}">
  <includeClasses regex=".*" />
  <excludeClasses regex=".*\.Test.*" />
  <!-- ... -->
</cobertura-instrument>
