20080222608 | Method and system for managing software testing - The present invention provides a method and a system for managing a computer software testing process and permitting interactive involvement with test case data. The system manages interactions with manual test cases, presenting the test cases for display and providing a means for collecting execution results data for the entire test case or for selections of the test case. The system of the present invention provides mechanism for interacting with individual steps of a test case. | 09-11-2008 |
20090013334 | Apparatus for Presenting Event Flows Using Sequence Diagrams - A method and system for presenting event associations between events from one or more event flows on a display screen of a computer, the method comprising: constructing a sequence diagram representation, the representation having timelines for the event flows and directional paths between the timelines for the event associations; and, displaying the representation on the display. | 01-08-2009 |
20090132225 | TECHNIQUE FOR CREATING SIMULATED SERVICING APPLICATIONS FROM DATA CAPTURED BY A CONFIGURABLE SOFTWARE PROBE - The present invention discloses a system for creating a simulated service application from data captured by a configurable software probe. Such a system can include a servicing application, a configurable software probe, and a simulator generation engine. The servicing application can be configured to provide at least one function to a requesting application. The configurable software probe can be embedded within the servicing application in order to dynamically capture function requests and corresponding return data. The simulator generation engine can be configured to generate a simulated servicing application that simulates a functioning of the servicing application. | 05-21-2009 |
20090138595 | TECHNIQUE TO GENERICALLY MANAGE EXTENSIBLE CORRELATION DATA - A technique to generically manage extensible correlation data is provided for correlating a series of events. The technique employs a global unique identifier (GUID) for identifying an event and uses the GUID as a key to associate one or more extensible correlators of correlation data. A transport correlator may be configured to transport the GUID for associating with a GUID of a second event such that a small and fixed amount of data is passed by the communications layer providing the transport, minimally impacting communications. An arbitrary amount of data may be logged and keyed with the GUID, providing optimization and flexibility. | 05-28-2009 |
20100031247 | SIMPLIFIED DEPLOYMENT MODELING - A deployment modeling platform enables a user to model application characteristics of target software and to associate application modeling parameters to the modeled application characteristics. A user may also model environment characteristics of a target deployment environment and to associate environment modeling parameters to the modeled deployment environment characteristics. Still further, a user may create a deployment model that associates and maps selected parameters of the modeled application characteristics of the target software to associated parameters of the modeled environment characteristics of the deployment environment, and to verify that each parameter that relates to a requirement is mapped to and is fulfilled by an associated parameter that relates to a corresponding capability to determine whether validation problems exist in order to deploy the target software in the associated deployment environment. | 02-04-2010 |
20110314466 | CREATING INSTANCES OF CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTS - Embodiments of the present invention provide a flexible approach to construct/create instances of cloud computing environments. Specifically, under embodiments of the present invention, an image of a virtual machine instance is created from the following components: image bits; content such as the liner notes, manual, metadata, etc.; end user information (so that the image can be customized for one or more specific end users); values provided to an installer; and cloud based values (e.g., IP address, hostname, etc.). By constructing the virtual machine using this approach, dynamic aspects of the image are managed external to the static binary representation of the image. This would include artifacts such as documentation, install scripts, binary files, etc. Additionally, user supplied data can be captured dynamically and copied to customize the image at the time of instance creation. Still yet, embodiments of the present invention provides system level configuration to construct the virtual machine. | 12-22-2011 |

20140019933 | SELECTING A DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATE FOR WORK IN A UNIFIED MODELING LANGUAGE (UML) ENVIRONMENT - An approach is provided for selecting a development resource to develop a component in a Unified Modeling Language (UML) software system architecture. Specifically, a request for a developer is received from an architect. A component for the developer is determined and candidate analytics is performed on the component. Based on the candidate analytics, a list of potential candidates is presented to the architect. A developer is then selected from the list of candidates. | 01-16-2014 |
