如果您强制要求单元测试的代码覆盖率的最低百分比,甚至可能作为提交到存储库的要求,它会是什么?
请解释你是如何得出你的答案的(因为如果你所做的只是选择一个数字,那么我自己也可以完成;)

我最喜欢的代码覆盖率是100%。星号之所以出现,是因为我更喜欢使用工具,允许我将某些行标记为“不算数”的行。如果我已经覆盖了100%“有用”的行,我就完成了。
底层流程是:
我编写测试来测试我能想到的所有功能和边缘情况(通常从文档开始工作)。 我运行代码覆盖工具 我检查了所有没有覆盖的线或路径,以及我认为不重要或无法到达的线或路径(由于防御性编程),我将其标记为不算数 我编写了新的测试来覆盖缺失的行,并在没有提到这些边缘情况时改进文档。
这样,如果我和我的合作者将来添加新代码或更改测试,就会有一条亮线告诉我们是否错过了重要的东西——覆盖率下降到100%以下。然而,它也提供了处理不同测试优先级的灵活性。

根据代码的关键程度,75%-85%是一个很好的经验法则。 运输代码肯定应该比房屋公用事业等更彻底地测试。
代码覆盖率是很好的,但前提是你从中得到的好处超过了实现它的成本/努力。
一段时间以来,我们一直在努力达到80%的标准,但我们刚刚决定放弃这个标准,转而更专注于我们的测试。专注于复杂的业务逻辑等,
这个决定是由于我们花在追逐代码覆盖率和维护现有单元测试上的时间越来越多。我们觉得我们已经到达了这样一个点:我们从代码覆盖率中得到的好处被认为比我们为实现它所付出的努力要少。
当我认为我的代码没有经过足够的单元测试,并且我不确定接下来要测试什么时,我使用覆盖率来帮助我决定接下来要测试什么。
如果我在一个单元测试中增加覆盖率——我知道这个单元测试有价值。
这适用于未覆盖的代码,50%覆盖或97%覆盖。
Alberto Savoia的这篇散文恰好回答了这个问题(以一种非常有趣的方式!):

Testivus On Test Coverage Early one morning, a programmer asked the great master: “I am ready to write some unit tests. What code coverage should I aim for?” The great master replied: “Don’t worry about coverage, just write some good tests.” The programmer smiled, bowed, and left. ... Later that day, a second programmer asked the same question. The great master pointed at a pot of boiling water and said: “How many grains of rice should I put in that pot?” The programmer, looking puzzled, replied: “How can I possibly tell you? It depends on how many people you need to feed, how hungry they are, what other food you are serving, how much rice you have available, and so on.” “Exactly,” said the great master. The second programmer smiled, bowed, and left. ... Toward the end of the day, a third programmer came and asked the same question about code coverage. “Eighty percent and no less!” Replied the master in a stern voice, pounding his fist on the table. The third programmer smiled, bowed, and left. ... After this last reply, a young apprentice approached the great master: “Great master, today I overheard you answer the same question about code coverage with three different answers. Why?” The great master stood up from his chair: “Come get some fresh tea with me and let’s talk about it.” After they filled their cups with smoking hot green tea, the great master began to answer: “The first programmer is new and just getting started with testing. Right now he has a lot of code and no tests. He has a long way to go; focusing on code coverage at this time would be depressing and quite useless. He’s better off just getting used to writing and running some tests. He can worry about coverage later.” “The second programmer, on the other hand, is quite experience both at programming and testing. When I replied by asking her how many grains of rice I should put in a pot, I helped her realize that the amount of testing necessary depends on a number of factors, and she knows those factors better than I do – it’s her code after all. There is no single, simple, answer, and she’s smart enough to handle the truth and work with that.” “I see,” said the young apprentice, “but if there is no single simple answer, then why did you answer the third programmer ‘Eighty percent and no less’?” The great master laughed so hard and loud that his belly, evidence that he drank more than just green tea, flopped up and down. “The third programmer wants only simple answers – even when there are no simple answers … and then does not follow them anyway.” The young apprentice and the grizzled great master finished drinking their tea in contemplative silence.
这取决于您所处的应用程序开发生命周期的哪个阶段。
If you've been at development for a while and have a lot of implemented code already and are just now realizing that you need to think about code coverage then you have to check your current coverage (if it exists) and then use that baseline to set milestones each sprint (or an average rise over a period of sprints), which means taking on code debt while continuing to deliver end user value (at least in my experience the end user doesn't care one bit if you've increased test coverage if they don't see new features).
根据你的领域,达到95%并不是不合理的,但我不得不说,平均而言,你将看到的平均情况是85%到90%。
