Make it easier to cumulate results
Brought to you by:

Recently we (in several components of the Eclipse platform) have been using EclEmma to gather coverage wrt to our tests.
However the complete number can only be obtained after running several disjoint test suites.
Consequently we were wondering if it would be possible to make it easier to cumulate the data of several runs, for example by simply having an option in the coverage dialog, or in the launch configuration.
Have you noticed the "Merge Sessions" action available in the Coverage views's toolbar? Simply run your test suites one after the other (ech run results in its own coverage session) and hit the the "Merge Session" button afterwards.
To avoid this final step, a "Auto Merge" toggle has been proposed some time ago: Each new launch is automatically merged with the current session. Let me know if this would solve your requirement.
