Test impact and java script files

Question

Does test impact can identify test cases linked to javascript files. What I mean is that lets consider that I have created a user story linked to a task for javascript dev and there is a test case linked to the user story, can test impact identify is as a changed code and recommand running the necessary tests for regression tests.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

From here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd264992.aspx

By using Test Impact Analysis during code development, you can identify the methods in a test project that have been affected by code changes in your managed code solution.

Since javascript is not managed code the answer would be no.
