Abstract: A method and system for automated continuous validation for regulatory compliance of CS with dynamic component. On identification of learning in the CS, a User Acceptance Testing (UAT) is performed using automated test cases of varying types in accordance with what-if scenarios and synthetic data generated using a unique approach. Thereafter, a base validation testing of the CS is performed with clean data (positive scenarios of outcome of the CS) and dirty data (negative scenarios) by conducting repeatability, stability (consistency) and reliability checks. The base validation testing is then followed by learning saturation testing on only if the dynamic component is validated, is rolled out in production environment else is rolled back to the earlier version.

Abstract: A testing method accesses tracing data comprising a plurality of tracing records corresponding to a plurality of test cases executed on a target system. The target system includes a plurality of microservices configured in accordance with a REST API. A dynamic test analyzer accesses the tracing data and imports a definition of the REST API. The analyzer checks each tracing record for consistency with the API definition. Based on this checking of the tracing records, one or more coverage metrics may be calculated. If any one or more of the one or more coverage metrics fails to exceed a threshold coverage, a testing action may be required. In some cases, the testing action may be selected from either seeking additional coverage of the APIs included in the target system or seeking additional test result coverage.

Abstract: Network services are deployed in a networked environment in association with a user account. Dependencies of a network service, such as other network services, may be identified based on an online analysis and an offline analysis of the network service. Further, anomalies associated with the dependencies may be identified in some situations. A call graph may include nodes corresponding to the network services and its dependencies, and may include an identifier corresponding to a part of the call path that has the anomaly. An inspection of the call graph allows software developers to readily recognize that their service depends on a potentially flawed software that may cause a service failure or outage.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for identifying performance issues and recommending actions during design-time application development include receiving a design-time user interface (UI) having multiple fields associated with data from a database, where the multiple fields including one or more types of fields.

One or more recommendations are generated for one or more of the fields based on the applied rules to the multiple fields and the recommendations are output to a display. The systems and techniques may include changing the design-time UI without user input using the recommendations.

A new dependency container image is generated using the first dependency container image and the at least one dependency. A new entry is stored in the dependency container image index that identifies the new dependency container image and each dependency contained in the new dependency container image.
