Abstract

A method for testing a computer application includes identifying components of a version of the application, said components including one or more components that are one of new and modified, generating a keyword matrix of the identified application components. A search is performed in a test script repository with respect to components listed as at least one of the first and second dimensions of the matrix. The keyword matrix is populated with test case identification numbers in the search result. Based on the populated keyword matrix, one or more of (a) gaps in test case coverage for the version of the application, and (b) one or more test cases covering the version of the application are identified.
