Systems and methods for fluid leak identification. Pressure data is received, from sensors attached to a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes tubes and a shell surrounding the tubes. A variation of the pressure data indicative of a leak in the heat exchanger is determined. A leak testing technique is selected, based on the variation of the pressure data, from a set of leak testing techniques. Each leak testing techniques defines an injection point for a fluorescent tracer and a detection target. A release the fluorescent tracer is triggered in the injection point. Images include testing data of the detection target are received. The testing data includes signals indicative of a location of the fluorescent tracer exiting through a rupture of the heat exchanger. The images are processed to identify a location of the rupture. A report including the location of the rupture of the heat exchanger is generated.
