Abstract
Aspects of the invention include executing a first test case on a system, capturing a first state of the system during execution of the first test case, determining a first result of the first test case, performing a second execution of the first test case on the system in response to the first result of the first test case being an unexpected result, capturing a second state of the system during the second execution of the first test case, determining a second result of the first test case, analyzing the first state and the second state to determine a state similarity score, and categorizing the first result as a false positive based at least in part on the state similarity score being above a first threshold and a determination that the second result is a different result than the first result.
