In a vehicle control apparatus, one or more control units, each configured to perform an arithmetic operation process in accordance with a program stored therein in advance to individually control an operating state of an activator mounted in a vehicle, are connected to a network communication path to form a vehicle network. The vehicle control apparatus includes an external communication unit and a monitoring unit. The external communication unit is connectable to or disconnectable from the network communication path and is configured to allow the vehicle to communicate externally. The monitoring unit is configured to determine a state of each of the one or more control units while the external communication unit is disconnected from the network communication path.

One embodiment is a computer-implemented method for detecting an influence caused by changing a source code of an application from which a document object model (DOM) tree and cascading style sheets (CSSs) are extracted. The method includes saving one or more input operations of a user of the application, a DOM tree, and a CSS for each of one or more times that an instruction is received to check a screen state. After the source code is changed, the one or more input operations are emulated in an operation order, for each of the one or more times. A DOM tree and CSS are acquired for each of the one or more times. The saved DOM tree and CSS are compared with the acquired DOM tree and CSS for each of the one or more times. A result of the comparison is output.
