Cov is a rudimentary code coverage tool.
Usage:
go tool cov [-lsv] [-g substring] [-m minlines] [6.out args]
Given a command to run, it runs the command while tracking which
sections of code have been executed. When the command finishes,
cov prints the line numbers of sections of code in the binary that
were not executed. With no arguments it assumes the command "6.out".

GOPATH environment variable
The Go path is used to resolve import statements.

patterns. For example, encoding/... expands to all packages
in subdirectories of the encoding tree, while net... expands to
net and all its subdirectories.
