FAQPage Schema

How do I analyze code change impact to prevent regressions in a feature branch?▼

To analyze code change impact and prevent regressions, you can run an impact analysis on a feature branch or PR diff to forecast affected files, domains, and tests. This generates a dependency graph to identify risk areas.

What is static analysis dependency graph generation for identifying affected files?▼

Static analysis dependency graph generation maps relationships across your codebase to identify directly and indirectly affected files and tests, providing a comprehensive impact report for targeted domains.

How do I determine the testing scope for a pull request before merging?▼

To determine the testing scope for a pull request, run an impact analysis on the PR diff. It uses static analysis to forecast impacted modules and outputs a precise list of tests needed for coverage.

Can I use madge to visualize code change impact across multiple domains?▼

Yes, you can use madge to generate dependency graphs and visualize code change impact across multiple domains. It applies static analysis to map affected files and risk areas comprehensively.

Does impact analysis work for multi-domain changes or only single file modifications?▼

Impact analysis works for both multi-domain changes and single file modifications. It applies static analysis to feature branches and PR diffs to forecast all directly and indirectly affected components and tests.

What are the limitations of using static analysis for code risk assessment?▼

Static analysis for code risk assessment identifies impacted files and tests by mapping dependency graphs, but it does not execute code, meaning it may miss runtime impacts or dynamic dependencies not visible in the graph.
