Abstract: A complexity dependency change impact system and method is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of determining an efficient software testing scheme based on a dependency structure matrix (DSM) analysis includes generating a compressed DSM based on cyclic blocks associated with modules of a software application, tagging and levelling the modules of the software application based on the compressed DSM, and generating at least one compressed partition matrix based on the tagged and levelled modules. The method further includes generating at least one expanded partition matrix based on the at least one compressed partition matrix, generating value threads using the at least one compressed partition matrix and obtaining a new scheduling table and performing a path analysis using the value threads to determine the efficient software testing scheme.

Abstract: A method of analyzing performance of a software testing system associated with a software system having multiple modules includes performing a computer-based complexity analysis of the software system, performing a computer-based impact analysis of information related to an impact of a defect on a module of the software system, and generating a computer-based distribution of effort across an impacted module of the software system based on the complexity analysis and the impact analysis to enhance the software testing system performance. The information may include reported defects from a working environment associated with the software system. The method may also include utilizing output data associated with the complexity analysis as input data to the impact analysis.
