Abstract
Providing change information includes obtaining information of a change track that changes software source code, wherein the change track includes a change item, identifying at least one preliminary candidate change item from the change item, wherein the preliminary candidate change item is a change item causing execution of the source code to change, and inserting an instrument in the source code at a location corresponding to the at least one preliminary candidate change item so information of at least one candidate change item is outputted in testing the source code using a test case. The at least one candidate change item is a change item related to the test case from the at least one preliminary candidate change item.
