  • Patent number: 9910765
    Abstract: Methods, systems, computer-readable media, and apparatuses for providing testing environments using virtualization are presented. In one or more embodiments, a computer system may receive, from a client computing device, a software application. Subsequently, the computer system may receive, from the client computing device, a set of one or more testing parameters for testing the software application. Then, the computer system may create, based on the set of one or more testing parameters for testing the software application, a testing environment for the software application using a native hardware layer that represents hardware on which the software application is configured to be executed. Thereafter, the computer system may initiate a testing session in which software application is executed in the testing environment. Subsequently, the computer system may provide, to the client computing device, a control interface for controlling the testing session.

  • Patent number: 9912533
    Abstract: An individual score is generated for a first combination of a transmitter configuration value and a receiver configuration value. The transmitter configuration is used to configure a first physical layer circuit and the receiver configuration is used to configure a second physical layer circuit. The individual score is based on measured characteristics observed by the second physical layer circuit in response to the first configuration combination. A neighbor weighted score is then generated for the first configuration combination. The neighbor weighted score is based on measured characteristics observed by the second physical layer circuit in response to a second configuration combination that is within a first distance from the first configuration combination within a multidimensional array of configuration combinations. The individual score is summed with the neighbor weighted score to generate a final neighbor weighted score for the first configuration combination.
