Abstract

An information handling system includes a storage and a baseboard management controller. The storage stores a current firmware release for the information handling system. The baseboard management controller generates a set of breakpoints for code differences from a previous firmware release to the current firmware release and executes multiple testcases for the current firmware release. Based on the execution of the testcases, the baseboard management controller stores breakpoint hitting events for the testcases in the storage. The baseboard management controller filters and ranks the breakpoint hitting events and maps the filtered and ranked breakpoint hitting events to the code differences. The baseboard management controller stores a reduced list of the code differences that are highly related to failed testcases of the current firmware release in the storage.
