Systems and methods for extracting cross language dependencies and estimating code change impact in software

A software management computing device, comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor which is configured to be capable of executing programmed instructions comprising and stored in the memory to:
• extract source code data from a source code repository and revision history data from a revision history repository;
• construct a plurality of dependency graphs from the extracted source code data and a network of a plurality of co-committed files from the extracted revision history data;
• compute one or more predefined graph metrics from the plurality of dependency graphs and the network of the plurality of co-committed files to determine one or more cross language dependencies and a code change impact;
• and
• visualize one or more cross language dependencies and the code change impact in a software.

A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for extracting cross language dependencies and estimating code change impact in software comprising machine executable code which when executed by at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to perform steps comprising:

• extracting a source code data from a source code repository and a revision history data from a revision history repository;
• constructing a plurality of dependency graphs from the extracted source code data and a network of a co-committed files from the extracted revision history data;
• determining, from the dependency graphs and the network of co-committed files, a cross language dependencies and a code change impact by one or more predefined graph metrics;
• visualizing, the cross language dependencies and the code change impact in a software.
