The best way is too enable two options to xdebug_start_code_coverage,
like:

xdebug_start_code_coverage( XDEBUG_CC_UNUSED | XDEBUG_CC_DEAD_CODE );

this gives an overview of all lines where PHP thinks there is code. This
only works if the file in which the code runs has *not* been executed
yet. You'll have to put the code in an include file, something like the
test case here:

http://svn.xdebug.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/xdebug/trunk/tests/bug00515.phpt?view=markup&revision=2899&root=xdebug
(which includes:

<?php
declare(ticks=1);
class UncoveredLine
{
    private $_foo;

    function __construct($foo)
    {
        if ($foo === 'bar') {
            $this->_foo = $foo;
        } else {
            $this->_foo = null;
        }
    }

    function getFoo()
    {
     return $this->_foo;
    }
}
?>
