I use it extensively.  It has a few problems. (For example, don't use
c or t for global names in your code!).  However it generally works
very well.

here's a sample output:

> coverage.py -rm ShellScriptModule.py
Name                Stmts   Exec  Cover   Missing

ShellScriptModule     111    108    97%   95-96, 213
