Evident, but not quite so neatly trivial. Run-time errors are
of two kinds:
1. Statements that will always cause an error if executed. Such
errors are bound to get caught by simple coverage testing.
2. Statements where the error is data dependent and there is no
simple guarantee.
Obviously errors in these two classes are a completely different
kettle of fish.
