Abstract
The current document is directed to a subsystem that is incorporated, in one implementation, within an automated application-release-management system. The subsystem to which the current document is directed determines, based on modifications to the source code for an application or another system that are submitted through a check-in process, a subset of tests within a large set of tests developed to test the application or system that invoke routines or other compilation units affected by the submitted source-code modifications. Only those tests that invoke routines and other compilation units affected by the source-code submissions need then be applied during testing and verification of the revised application or system.
