Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method of predicting impact of change on event detection, comprising: obtaining search input describing a changed computing resource, the search input comprising a name of the changed computing resource and the changed computing resource comprising an application program; programmatically evaluating each of at least one event detection specification, the event detection specification specifying a set of one or more conditions that when matched indicate occurrence of an event that corresponds to the event detection specification, to predict whether the changed computing resource will impact event detection, by the event detection specification, at run time, the programmatic evaluation comprising searching the set of one or more conditions specified in the event detection specification to determine whether the name of the changed computing resource is used therein; presenting, on a user interface, a report that documents each programmatically-evaluated event detection specification for which the programmatic evaluation predicts that the changed computing resource will impact the event detection; and opening, from the user interface, an editor and modifying by the editor a selected event detection specification based on the changed computing resource.
