Summary:When changes are made to a software system during development and maintenance, they need to be tested again, i.e., regression tests to ensure that changes behave as intended and have not impacted the software quality. This research will produce an automated tool that can help the software manager or a maintainer to search for the coverage artifact before and after a change request. Hence, the purpose of this research is to improve software changes with the traceability model and test effort estimation during regression testing. To achieve this goal, this study used one case study that matches the HYTEE(Hybrid Software Change Management Tool with Test Effort Estimation) model as well. This paper reports the use of the modified Nominal Group Technique (NGT) as a method to evaluate the Evaluation of the HYTEE Model. From the studies, it is hoped that an efficient and improve the solution to regression testing can be realized, thus, gives the benefits to software testers and project manager manage the software changes task since it is a critical part in software maintenance.
