Abstract
A software code testing system includes sub-engines and a test case database storing test cases. A test case sub-engine runs each of the test cases on a plurality of software code modules, and a software code coverage determination sub-engine identifies a respective software code coverage for each software code method included in each of the software code modules. A test case/software code coverage mapping sub-engine then maps the respective software code coverage for each of the software code methods included in each of the software code modules with the respective test case that was run on that software code module to provide a test case/software code coverage mapping, which is used by a test suite optimization sub-engine to generate a test suite that includes a subset of the test cases that provide a desired level of software code coverage using a minimum number of test cases.
