  • Patent number: 8397200
    Abstract: A system for performing efficient continuous grading flow for test coverage analysis. The system provides for continuous test coverage grading. The continuous grading flow analyzes individual tests upon completion without requiring an entire set of tests to finish. As a result, the grading process at the end of the regression run is no longer necessary, disk space and memory requirements are dramatically reduced, and partial results are produced as the grading of individual tests complete, allowing engineers to track progress and make real-time decisions based on the intermediate results. The resource requirements of our continuous flow scale linearly with the number of tests rather than exponentially as with traditional approaches.
