Abstract

Various implementations provide an approach to control testing frequency based on behavior change detection. Behavior change detection is utilized, instead of a pre-defined patterns approach, to look at a system's behavior and detect any variances from what would otherwise be normal operating behavior. In at least some implementations, a behavior change detection system collects behavior from a service, such as an online service, and detects behavior changes, either permanent or transient, in the service. In this way, the changes may be used to compute a volatility score, which the system uses to control testing frequency of one or more services, such as URLs that are part of a particular service.
