  • System and method for detecting software tests that are suspected as tests that always provide false positive
    Patent number: 12461845
    Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for detecting fake software tests are disclosed. A processor detects changes in a code against a commit timeline and stores historical record of code change differences over time onto a database. An API call is made to obtain from the database, for only the changed files in a given pull request, a list of the change differences which comes as a structured object. The processor converts the structured object into a single string value containing all of the change differences; and searches the string for a set of disallowed commands for checking for assertions in the given pull request which is attempting only to change code with a fake test that always passes the code in connection with testing the application. When such a command is found, comments back to the given pull request indicating that the given pull request contains the fake test.
