Java code coverage: dead or paid?

Question

I am looking for an answer to code coverage tools. I know that options on this question were asked before:

• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3904571/code-coverage-tools-in-java
• https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39329/what-is-your-favourite-code-coverage-tools-free-and-non-free
• Java Coverage Tools
• Is there any convenient code coverage tool that will be used with JUnit?

so it’s possible, it’s a terrible question. But for the most part, these issues have been aging for years, and I am looking to see if there are any new tools that have appeared.

I know:

• Cobertura
• Emma / EclEmma
• Clover
• Semantic projects .

But as far as I can tell (see below), two open source projects are essentially dead. A paid solution is an option, but I would prefer, if possible, open source.

Open source, in fact, abandoned innovative software to cover codes, or has energy gone to some new library that I don’t know about?

Cobertura

Latest version: 1.9.4.1, released 3/3/2010 Last commit: 1/7/2011 

Emma

 Latest version: 2.1.5320, released 6/22/2005 Last commit: (uses CVS, so there are no changesets, but commits are 6-8 years old) Developer forums have only a handful of posts 

Clover

 Latest version: 3.1.5, released 4/25/2012 

Answer 1

There are tools for covering open source that have been actively updated.

It was the team that developed EclEmma, ​​and SONAR has supported it in recent years. That sounds promising to me.
