Software testing is an investigation conducted to provide stakeholders with information about the quality of the software product or service under test. Software testing can also provide an objective, independent view of the software to allow the business to appreciate and understand the risks of software implementation.
Systems and methods for software test management in cloud-based network
Embodiments relate to systems and methods for testing and evaluating software in the network cloud. A developer or other operator may wish to debug, modify, or update a set of test software based on testing of that software. The developer can instantiate a set of virtual servers or other test beds in the cloud, and install the subject software to the virtual test beds. A test management module can monitor the execution of the set of test software on the set of virtual test beds, to detect execution faults, measure processing performance, stress-test the software with predetermined data inputs, and manage other aspects of software life cycle development. The test management module can provide or access a set of application programming interfaces to a set of software tools external to the cloud, so that the set of test software can be tested and optimized using external programming development tools.

Software test and performance monitoring system
InactiveUS20060129992A1Error detection/correctionSpecific program execution arrangementsExtensibilityRegression testing
A quality assurance benchmark system tests a target executable application under load stress conditions over an extended period of time. The system has user-controlled parameters to benchmark performance, scalability, and regression testing before deploying the application to customers. The system includes a display processor and a test unit. The display processor generates data representing a display image enabling a user to select: input parameters to be provided to the target executable application, and output data items to be received from the target executable application and associated expected range values of the data items. The test unit provides multiple concurrently operating executable procedures for interfacing with the target executable application to provide the input parameters to the target executable application, and to determine whether data items received from the target executable application are within corresponding associated expected range values of the data items.

Software testing based on changes in execution paths
InactiveUS20050223361A1Error detection/correctionSpecific program execution arrangementsTest caseSoftware testing
Non-redundant software testing is provided based on changes in the execution paths of a software program. Upon changes to the code of the software program, changed or new execution paths are identified. Test cases capable of traversing the changed or new execution paths are then identified and executed to test the modified code. The difference between a first plurality of execution paths of the software program before the changes to the code and a second plurality of the execution paths of the software program after the changes to the code is identified. Test cases that intersect the changed paths may be identified and new test cases may be developed that would execute the changed paths.

Automated software testing framework
InactiveUS20070234293A1Improve scalabilitySimple and efficientError detection/correctionSpecific program execution arrangementsSpecific testWeb service
A generic testing framework to automatically allocate, install and verify a given version of a system under test, to exercise the system against a series of tests in a “hands-off” objective manner, and then to export information about the tests to one or more developer repositories (such as a query-able database, an email list, a developer web server, a source code version control system, a defect tracking system, or the like). The framework does not “care” or concern itself with the particular implementation language of the test as long as the test can issue directives via a command line or configuration file. During the automated testing of a given test suite having multiple tests, and after a particular test is run, the framework preferably generates an “image” of the system under test and makes that information available to developers, even while additional tests in the suite are being carried out. In this manner, the framework preserves the system “state” to facilitate concurrent or after-the-fact debugging. The framework also will re-install and verify a given version of the system between tests, which may be necessary in the event a given test is destructive or otherwise places the system in an unacceptable condition.

A system for automatic generation of test programs employs test generation foci linked to a finite state machine behavioral model of a software application under test to produce abstract test suites that are executed by an execution engine. The foci include directive expressions that tag coverage variables of the behavioral model. The execution engine operates until the tagged coverage variables have assumed all their possible values. Both the behavioral models and the foci are archivable and can be retrieved and reused independently.
