Test Impact Analysis Plugin

A new plugin jQAssistant is available providing functionality for test impact analysis. The idea is to select only tests for execution that are most likely affected by changes in the version control system in large projects.

Therefore commits within the current Git branch of a Maven project are evaluated for changes on Java types. Using this information test suites are created listing JUnit tests that are potentially affected. In a second step these suites may be executed by the Maven Surefire plugin.

If this sounds interesting for you take a look at the plugin homepage, give it a try and provide feedback!
