Self-Healing Automation with Healenium and Regression Minimization with Drill4J
summary
Healenium is a self-healing layer for Selenium that plugs into existing tests (two jars plus a small wrapper), captures a known-good DOM, and on locator failures generates ranked fallback selectors with a clickable IDE report to recover locator-related failures (including mobile). Drill4J is a JVM-agent that maps tests to the code they exercise, records which methods each test touches, highlights changed or untested methods as risk counts, and lets CI run a small subset of tests (often ~5%) that still detect roughly 95% of regressions while providing coverage and performance traces.
