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.

从另一个角度查看覆盖率:具有清晰控制流的编写良好的代码是最容易覆盖、最容易阅读的，并且通常是错误最少的代码。在编写代码时牢记清晰和可覆盖性，并在编写代码时并行编写单元测试，以我之见，您将得到最好的结果。

我认为不可能有这样的B/W规则。 应该审查代码，特别注意关键细节。 然而，如果它没有经过测试，它就有一个bug!

我认为最重要的是了解随着时间的推移，覆盖率的趋势是什么，并理解趋势变化的原因。你认为趋势的变化是好是坏取决于你对原因的分析。

代码覆盖率只是另一个度量。就其本身而言，它可能非常具有误导性(参见www.thoughtworks.com/insights/blog/are-test-coverage-metrics-overrated)。因此，您的目标不应该是实现100%的代码覆盖率，而是要确保您测试了应用程序的所有相关场景。

我认为正确的代码覆盖率的最佳症状是单元测试帮助解决的具体问题的数量合理地对应于您创建的单元测试代码的大小。
