Abstract
Embodiments are disclosed for testing source code changes. The techniques include generating an incremental intermediate representation of a security vulnerability fix to repair an identified security vulnerability of a source code application. The techniques also include merging the incremental intermediate representation with a full intermediate representation of a previous version of the source code application. The techniques further include generating an impact graph based on the merged intermediate representation. Additionally, the techniques include performing a security vulnerability analysis on the security vulnerability fix based on the merged intermediate representation, the impact graph, and the identified security vulnerability. Further, the techniques include updating the security vulnerability analysis by removing one or more findings that are not related to the impact graph. Also, the techniques include generating a security assessment for the security vulnerability fix based on the updated security vulnerability analysis.
