When we write code we usually make a lot of logical conditions in our if/switch cases. When we execute our tests the default settings on IntelliJ do not make branch coverage. That is essential to be sure that you tested all of the code logix paths in tour valuable product.
Here we will show you in detailed steps how to enable the branch code coverage.

Also in the code you will see yellow indications where the boolean condition branch was not covered with all its cases like the example below:

Summary
With this tool in hand you could easily verify that your tests cover all your valuable business cases where you implement as different code branches.
