Eclipse Plugin Performance Improvements
The Clover database format has been completely rewritten to make running Clover in an IDE as fast as possible. Large code bases, such as JIRA and Confluence, have shown a significant reduction in the time it takes to compile source code and run tests with Clover enabled - so much so that you will hardly know that Clover is there!
IDE Plugin Ease-of-Use Features
A new context menu has been added to the package explorer to make including or excluding files and packages quick and easy. For large projects, this makes it possible to turn Clover on or off for a specific package or class, run the tests, view the coverage and then turn Clover off again.

100% Coverage filter
When some of your files have reached 100% coverage, you can remove them from view using this new filter. This allows you to reduce the clutter in the display and see only those files that are not completely covered by unit tests.

New HTML Tree Map
The popular Tree Map feature from Clover for Eclipse and Clover for IDEA is now available in Clover for Ant and Clover for Maven, showing a geometric view of coverage in colored squares, with size indicating the scale of each file. The new HTML Tree Map allows you to easily spot not only poorly tested, large classes but also identify clusters of untested code.
New API for Optimizing Tests Programatically
This new addition to Clover will allow you to take advantage of Clover's Test Optimization feature, only running those tests for which code has changed, even if you are using a testing framework other than Junit or TestNG.
