A method, computer program product, and system is described. A continuous integration environment is identified. A first software test associated with the continuous integration environment is identified. A probationary status for the first software test is determined, the probationary status indicating, at least in part, a potential lack of reliability for the first software test.

Probationary software tests

A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and system is provided for determining test coverage. In an implementation, a method may include identifying at least one change in source code. The method may also include instrumenting object code of at least one class file associated with a source file of the source code associated with the identified at least one change. The method may further include testing the instrumented object code with at least one test case. The method may further include generating a coverage report associated with the instrumented object code, wherein the coverage report includes a proportion of the at least one change in the source code covered by the at least one test case.

System and method for determining test coverage

A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and computing system is provided for automatically creating screen captures of a user interface. In an implementation, a method may include identifying a portion of a user interface display associated with a page object. The method may also include creating a screen capture image including the portion of the user interface display associated with the page object. The method may further include associating the screen capture image with a documentation record for the page object.

Automated screen captures

Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for comparing screenshots of an application interface. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving test scenario parameters, wherein the parameters include a first screenshot of an application interface, one or more page objects associated with the first screenshot, generating a second screenshot of an updated application interface, identifying one or more page objects within the second screenshot based on a scope of each of the page objects associated with the first screenshot, comparing a section of the second screenshot to a section of the first screenshot that includes one or more page objects associated with the first screenshot that correspond to one or more page objects included in the section of the second screenshot, and determining whether the section of the second screenshot matches, within a predetermined tolerance level, the section of the first screenshot.

Screenshot validation testing

A method for testing a new workflowed item associated with a workflow process in a content management system (CMS) is provided. The method may include adding a workflow stage to the workflow process in the content management system (CMS). The method may also include adding a test associated with the workflow stage. The method may further include determining if a criteria threshold is met based on the test associated with the workflow stage. Additionally, the method may include publishing the new workflowed item based on the criteria threshold being met.

Performance based approval in CMS workflow process

A first changeset that identifies a change to a first software product development file is generated. An expiry condition to assign to the first changeset is received. Responsive to determining that the expiry condition assigned to the first changeset is met, whether any subsequent changesets identify another change that depends on the change to the first software product development file identified in the first changeset is determined. Responsive to determining that no subsequent changesets identify another change that depends on the change to the first software product development file identified in the first changeset, the change identified in the first changeset, such that the first software product development file does not include the change identified in the first changeset is automatically reversed.

Work-item expiration in software configuration management environment

A method, computer program product, and system for identifying collaborators is described. One or more software developers may be mapped to one or more software code elements. One or more expert rankings of the one or more software developers may be determined with respect to the one or more software code elements. One or more current code elements associated with an active software developer may be identified. A request for assistance from an expert may be received from the active software developer. One or more potential experts may be identified based upon, at least in part, the one or more current code elements and the one or more expert rankings.
