A processor-implemented method, system, and/or computer program product automates regression testing based on cyclomatic complexity of changed code. A base code change to a software program is identified as having a particular cyclomatic complexity. Multiple different software test routines are mapped to the base code change. A specific quantity of the different software test routines are then run to test the base code change, where the quantity of test routines that is run is based on the cyclomatic complexity of the base code change.
