摘要：Impact analysis aims to quickly predict the extent of changes which will be required to software project products as a result of a potential change request. The existence of partially developed classes in the software development phase artifacts causes several challenges to the current static analysis and dynamic analysis techniques. Thus, this paper proposes a new approach that integrates between these two techniques to support those challenges. There are two main contributions of this paper: (1) a new change impact analysis approach that is able to support the software development phase; and (2) evaluation results that show the new approach gives higher accuracy of results over the selected current impact analysis approaches.
