Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, computer program products, and systems for generating comprehensive test cases covering new events yet to be covered. Embodiments of the present invention can be used to receive a request to generate a test case, wherein the request comprises a coverage schema associated with a first set of events to be covered in the generated test case. Embodiments of the present invention includes updating the coverage schema, wherein the updating the coverage schema comprises adding a second set of events to be covered in the generated test case and generating constraints used to satisfy requirements for meeting the first set of events and the second set of events in the updated coverage schema.
