Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to comparing artifacts and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for multi-contextual navigation of deltas in a hierarchy. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for multi-contextual navigation can include rendering objects for an artifact utilizing a default contextual view of the objects, selecting an object in the default contextual view and directing an inward navigation to a different object in the default contextual view. Notably, responsive to the directing of the inward navigation to the different object, a different contextual view can be provided for at least a portion of the objects defined by the different object.
