International ClassG06F 11/00AbstractMethods, systems and media for generating an improved regression suite by applying harvesting models and/or regression algorithms to tests utilized in verification of a system are disclosed. In one embodiment, a regression manager responsive to user input may be coupled to a harvester module, an analysis module, and a management module. In one embodiment, the harvester module is responsive to harvesting models defined in a modeling language, where the harvester module is coupled to a regression suite database. In another embodiment, a regression methodology may be defined from a collection of regression strategies and each regression strategy may be defined from a combination of harvesting models and/or regression algorithms. A regression generator to receive tests, to apply one or more regression strategies to the tests, to provide reports, and to allow user control may also be provided.Other References
