+====== Eclipse ======
+[[http://www.eclipse.org|Eclipse]] is an open source integrated development environment (IDE) for [[http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html/|Java]]. More generally, Eclipse is described as "an open extensible IDE for anything and nothing in particular."  Eclipse provides a robust Java development environment that incorporates popular tools like [[http://www.junit.org/|JUnit]]. The beauty of Eclipse is in the extensibility of the platform beyond a basic Java development environment through plug-ins.

+===== Remote System Access =====
+Eclipse has remote system access built into it.
+To use it with our systems, go to ''File --> New --> Other --> Remote System Explorer --> Connection''.  Select ''SSH Only''.  Use ''fred.you_know_the_rest.edu'' as the host name.
+You may need to switch into the ''Remote System Explorer'' view by going to ''Window --> Perspective --> Open Perspective --> Other --> Remote System Explorer''.  The perspective you're currently in shows up in little icons in the upper right hand corner of Eclipse.

+Right-click on the connection you just made, and click ''Connect'', and enter your password.  After making a connection, in the left ''Remote Systems'' side bar, you should see something like the image on the right:
+You should be able to open the various folders to see your directories.  You can drag and drop or copy/paste files from your (local) machine into the remote directories in this Eclipse view.
+===== Plugins =====

+Records program coverage
+==== Metrics ====
+I found two different Metrics plugins.
+This one has a summary view and is the one demonstrated in CS209: [[http://metrics.sourceforge.net/|Metrics Site]]
+This one shows you for what metrics your code is starting to be bad:
