Another use case would be to run a test inside an emulator, or through a Virtual Machine.

### `--show-coverage`: get statistics about code documentation coverage

This option allows you to get a nice overview over your code documentation coverage, including both
doc-comments and code examples in the doc-comments. Example:

```bash
$ rustdoc src/lib.rs -Z unstable-options --show-coverage
+-------------------------------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| File | Documented | Percentage | Examples | Percentage |
+-------------------------------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| lib.rs | 4 | 100.0% | 1 | 25.0% |
+-------------------------------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
| Total | 4 | 100.0% | 1 | 25.0% |
+-------------------------------------+------------+------------+------------+------------+
```

You can also use this option with the `--output-format` one:

```bash
$ rustdoc src/lib.rs -Z unstable-options --show-coverage --output-format json
{"lib.rs":{"total":4,"with_docs":4,"total_examples":4,"with_examples":1}}
```

To be noted: the computation of code examples follows these rules:

1. These items aren't accounted by default:
* struct/union field
* enum variant
* constant
* static
* typedef
2. If one of the previously listed items has a code example, then it'll be counted.
