  • Patent number: 11586530
    Abstract: The disclosed technology teaches correctly assembling a sequence of components for interacting with a user, including providing a sequence setup GUI with components that accept inputs and have input chain dependencies and outputs. The GUI supports construction of an executable sequence by connecting at least five of the components in a directed graph and tracing multiple paths through the components in the directed graph, resulting from at least one conditional branch at a first component, as the components are connected in the directed graph. Also taught is testing whether input chain dependencies of components under evaluation are satisfied when the components are invoked following any of the multiple paths and locating at least one error in use of a second component that results from failure to satisfy the input chain dependencies of the second component and reporting the error to a user, before executing the sequence and causing the error.

  • Patent number: 11561890
    Abstract: An automated testing framework and associated tools for executable applications such as games focus on integration testing, wherein users create data-driven tests by using test modules and configuration data as building blocks. The tools facilitate cooperation between coders and non-technical Quality Assurance (QA) staff in creating automated tests, by simplifying the user interface for configuring tests. Components of the tools simulate user interactions with the application under test, for example, gamepad button presses. The tools are also capable skipping portions of gameplay or other interactive activity and directly jumping into a desired game mode during automated testing, and other functions.

  • Patent number: 11544046
    Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling an application modernization system to efficiently identify various types of software development “anti-patterns” (including cloud anti-patterns) associated with software applications. An anti-pattern is broadly any characteristic of a software application or system that represents an undesirable or suboptimal solution to a problem within a given software design context. Depending on the particular software design context, examples of possible anti-patterns and cloud anti-patterns can include the use of insecure network protocols, an application's reliance on local file system access, the use of a deprecated or outdated class, function, or library, etc. An application modernization system described herein includes a modernization assessment client application that identifies the presence of anti-patterns in users' software applications using a collection of anti-pattern definitions (e.g.

  • Patent number: 11537378
    Abstract: A sample set of cloud computing resources is dynamically selected for testing a software deployment. Telemetry data associated with the resources and customer support data associated with customers that utilize the resources are obtained. A subset of the customers is selected based on the customer support data, and a candidate subset of the resources is selected based on the selected subset of customers and the telemetry data. Criteria for the selection is based on usage patterns and is configurable. Resources of customers with special support agreements, and customers previously selected, may be excluded from the candidate subset. The sample set of cloud computing resources may be randomly selected from the candidate subset. Software is deployed to the sample set as a B resource group and tested for issues with an A resource group to determine whether to proceed to full deployment, roll back the deployment, and/or retest the software.

  • Patent number: 11467819
    Abstract: An information handling system includes a shared device, first and second compute nodes, and a chassis management controller. The first compute node includes a first management controller, which initiates a firmware update for firmware in the shared device. The first management controller detects that that the firmware update is complete. In response to the firmware update being completed, the management controller sends rollback information for the firmware to the chassis controller. The chassis controller stores the rollback information as a rollback image within a storage location of a memory. The chassis controller further sends the rollback information to the second compute node. The second compute node includes a second management controller, which in turn receives the rollback information from the chassis controller, and updates the rollback information within the second compute node.

  • Patent number: 11461088
    Abstract: Embodiments offer early assessment of upgrade compliance checking upon software landscape production data, prior to actually executing a full impact analysis. In a pre-transport phase, discrete upgrade compliance checks are run and corresponding reports returned to individual developers. In a transport phase, batches of combined compliance checks (bundled into released transports) are run and corresponding reports returned to higher level users. According to certain embodiments, pre-transport and/or transport compliance checking is performed upon landscape production data condensed to a bi-value states. Such condensing can desirably reduce stored data volumes and impart security. According to some embodiments, pre-transport and/or transport compliance checking is performed upon production data merged across multiple landscapes. This avoids storing redundant upgrade check data.
