  • Game stream fuzz testing and automation
    Patent number: 10037266
    Abstract: A system and method of fuzz testing an on-line gaming system includes a host test bench system capable of generating a protocol template that can be used for identifying primitives in the data communications between a client device and the online gaming servers. The protocol template can then be used to identify primitives in initial communications between the client device and the online gaming servers and perform generation fuzz testing of those initial communications. The system also includes a game stream interceptor that can intercept streaming online gaming data in both directions between the client device and the online gaming system. The intercepted streaming online gaming data can be mutated to test the client device and the servers in the online gaming system.
