Abstract
Mechanisms are provided for evaluating test cases for testing a software product based on a requirements change. The mechanisms analyze a test case corpus to identify a plurality of first relationships between elements of test cases in the test case corpus and generate a test case relationship model based on the identified plurality of first relationships. The mechanisms receive a proposed requirements change to change one or more requirements of the software product and then perform a search of the test case relationship model to identify test case relationships corresponding to the proposed requirements change. The mechanisms identify a subset of test cases affected by the proposed requirements change and generate an output specifying the identified subset of test cases.
