US Patent 11416380 Micro services tests prioritization

One example method includes identifying a changed microservice whose code has been changed, mapping, for each microservice in a group of microservices that includes the changed microservice, microservice dependencies associated with the changed microservice, determining, for each microservice in the group, a relative risk that the microservice will be adversely affected by the change to the code of the changed microservice, and based on the respective relative risks, generating a test order indicating an order in which the microservices in the group will be tested.
