  • Patent number: 10481879
    Abstract: Improving how a codebase, which may include source code, related databases, test files, code history, and/or changes, is drafted, edited, debugged, or otherwise developed. Machine learning is performed on a model codebase to establish a machine learning model. When a change to a codebase occurs, the machine learning model may be applied to evaluate that change. A change context providing context for this change is accessed. An analyzer then analyzes the change using the machine learning model and at least a part of the change context to generate an analysis result. Some information about the result is rendered. After rendering that information, a determination regarding how a user responded to the information is performed, and a subsequent analysis is then modified based on the user's response.
