+ The source code to html code generator in Test Server
+ (and Common Test) would fail to generate anchors in the
+ html code for functions with non-expandable macros,
+ resulting in bad html links to such functions. This
+ correction lets the code generator ignore macros that
+ can't be expanded (i.e. not pre-process them), so that
+ correct anchors will always be produced.</p>

+ The mechanism for running code cover analysis with
+ common_test has been improved. Earlier, if a test run
+ consisted of multiple tests, cover would be started and
+ stopped for each test. This would give "intermediate"
+ cover logs available from the "Coverage log" link on the
+ test suite result pages. To accumulate cover data over
+ all tests, the 'export' option had to be used in the
+ cover spec file. This was not well documented, and the
+ functionality was quite confusing.</p>
+ <p>
+ Using the 'nodes' option in the cover spec file would
+ fail when the test run consisted of multiple tests, since
+ the specified nodes would only be included in the cover
+ analysis of the first test.</p>
+ <p>
+ The repeated compilation and analysis of the same modules
+ was also very time consuming.</p>
+ <p>
+ To overcome these problems, ct will now only cover
+ compile and analyze modules once per test run, i.e. once
+ for each cover spec file. The log file is available via a
+ new button on the top level index page. The old "Coverage
+ log" links on the test suite result pages still exist,
+ but they all point to the same log containing the
+ accumulated result.</p>

+ Application upgrade (appup) files are corrected for the
+ following applications: </p>
+ <p>
+ <c>asn1, common_test, compiler, crypto, debugger,
+ dialyzer, edoc, eldap, erl_docgen, et, eunit, gs, hipe,
+ inets, observer, odbc, os_mon, otp_mibs, parsetools,
+ percept, public_key, reltool, runtime_tools, ssh,
+ syntax_tools, test_server, tools, typer, webtool, wx,
+ xmerl</c></p>
+ <p>
+ A new test utility for testing appup files is added to
+ test_server. This is now used by most applications in
+ OTP.</p>
