Coverage can be defined as a measurement which is used in software testing to show the extent to which the source code is tested.
There are three types of coverage techniques which are as follows:

a.) Statement coverage : This makes sure that every line of source code has been performed and tested.

b.) Decision coverage : The decision coverage makes sure that every decision like true/false, in the source code has been implemented and tested.

c.) Path coverage : This coverage makes sure that each possible path through a set of code is implemented and tested.
