Abstract
There are provided methods and systems to analyze rules. The system may analyze the rules by applying the rules to a most popular query. The most popular query may be identified as such by containing a particular keyword. Specifically, a most popular query may contain a keyword that appears more often than other keyword in a sample of queries received over a period of time. Next, the system applies the rules to the most popular query to determine a percentage of coverage of the rules for the most popular query. For example, a particular rule may evaluate TRUE, if the rule identifies a keyword in the query. Next the system generates a percentage of coverage based on a count of the rules that evaluated TRUE and the total number of rules that were applied to the most popular query.
