The coverage.py module (http://www.garethrees.org/2001/12/04/python-coverage) has worked pretty well for us. Just run your unit test suite under its control. There's also http://www.softwareverify.com/pythonCoverageValidator which is commercial. -- David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
