A computer program product for building a test environment, the computer program product comprising:

• one or more computer readable storage media and program instructions stored on the one or more computer readable storage media, the program instructions comprising:
• program instructions to identify resources with which to build a test environment for a coding task involving one or more portions of code for a software program based, at least in part on one or more areas of the software program associated with the one or more portions of code, wherein the test environment to be built includes accommodations for testing one or more portions of code;
• and
• program instructions to predict a time at which to start building the test environment such that the test environment is built and made available to a user by the time the user is prepared to test the one or more portions of code in the test environment.
