TARGETING CODE SECTIONS FOR CORRECTING COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT DEFECTS USING RECORDS OF A DEFECT TRACKING SYSTEM

摘要

An unresolved defect can be identified in a computer program product. It may not be initially known which of a plurality of different code segments of the computer program product are able to be modified to correct to repair the unresolved defect. A subset of the different code segments can be predicted utilizing information contained within a database of previously reported defects. The predicting can be determined based on a set of code segments that were previously modified to correct or repair the previously reported defects as detailed within the database.
