Abstract
The cognitive identification of related code changes is disclosed herein including receiving a set of changes for a software package that include changes to at least one program, analyzing data associated with the set of changes to identify a goal of the set of changes, querying a data repository for a pattern associated with the identified goal, and receiving, from the data repository, the pattern associated with the identified goal. The pattern includes at least one program to be changed for the identified goal. The method further including comparing the set of changes to the pattern, determining, based on the comparison, that at least one program included in the pattern is not changed in the set of changes, and transmitting a message to a computing device associated with a user that indicates that the at least one program included in the pattern is not changed in the set of changes.
