Abstract

See full text

An approach is provided to identify test cases based on changed test code. In the approach, test cases are compared to a current test environment that includes an instrumented software program that results in matching test cases. Matching test cases are selected based on a detection of one or more substantive changes to the current test environment. The current test environment is tested using the selected test cases. In an alternate approach, the current environment is tested with multiple test cases and code coverage metrics are retained. After the initial testing, modification of the software program results in comparing of the modification to the retained code coverage metrics whereupon a set of the test cases are selected and used to re-test the software program.
