Abstract
A method and system for assessing effect of a change in a computer software including a plurality of requirements and a plurality of test cases. The method and system include: changing a requirement from the plurality of requirements; correlating the computer software with the changed requirement to identify a portion of the computer software that is affected by the changed requirement; and correlating one or more of the test cases with the portion of the computer software that is affected to identify one or more of the test cases that is affected by the changed requirement.Additionally, the computer software may be changed and the effect of that change on the requirements and the test cases may then be determined.
