I am in the process of writing unit tests for someone else's code. Right now, I am just sort of looking through all the classes of the main code branch to see if I have written tests to cover all cases. What sort of tools exist that could aid me in this to see how many more tests I still have to write?

This question is really about code coverage. Unit tests are just a way to exercise the code, for which one might want code coverage. There are many other ways to exercise code, for which one might also want code coverage. – Ira Baxter Jun 6 '15 at 9:32

And also name the pricing conditions. If I'm not mistaken, this one doesn't come for free. – Izzy♦ Feb 3 '18 at 10:35
