Code Coverage selection data set

You use the selection data set to specify the criteria that is used in the evaluation of the code coverage observations to create a extracted observations data set and a set of statistics based on the selection provided. For example, you might want to see only the results for a specific group, or a specific program even if the Options data set indicated more than one program. This allows the user to define the granularity of the information.

There are two different types of selection criteria attributes. The first group selects the entries that are to be extracted from the observation data set that is created by z/OS® Debugger. The other group operates from within the subset that is created after applying the first group of attributes. The second set of attributes is designed for further selection of the statements to be considered in the final statistical results based on the contents of the program source.
