Abstract: A method for comparatively evaluating end user experiences (EUX's) for different configurations of an enterprise computer system includes: setting the enterprise computer system to have different first and second configurations; for each of the configurations defining a number of artificial end users and instantiating the artificial end users as each driving a corresponding workstation with a respective copy of a predefined workload for stressing the given configuration of the enterprise computer system with imposition by the instantiated artificial end users of their respective copies of the predefined workload; while the instantiated artificial end users drive their corresponding workstations with the respective copies of the predefined workload, measuring time durations for task performance attributes for each of the driving artificial end users; and comparing normalized time duration measurements of the first configuration with the normalized time duration measurements of the second configuration.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for testing launched applications on a desktop environment. The method captures a screenshot from the launched application. The screenshot may then be analyzed to determine whether it is a modal screenshot or a clean screenshot. In the event the screenshot is determined to be a modal screenshot, the modal screenshot may be classified, and, if classified, information may be sought to resolve the problem with the modal screenshot. In the screenshot is determined to be a clean screenshot, the clean screenshot is evaluated against stored reference screenshots to identify a match.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for simulating user load and evaluating performance and/or capacity of SBC or VDI datacenter infrastructure. The method runs workloads on a virtual desktop infrastructure for an increasing number of virtual users. When the average response time of the infrastructure to perform operations exceeds a predetermined threshold, the number of simulated users at that time may be considered the capacity of the infrastructure.
