Abstract: Disclosed implementations relate to automating semantically-similar computing tasks across multiple contexts. In various implementations, an initial natural language input and a first plurality of actions performed using a first computer application may be used to generate a first task embedding and a first action embedding in action embedding space. An association between the first task embedding and first action embedding may be stored. Later, subsequent natural language input may be used to generate a second task embedding that is then matched to the first task embedding. Based on the stored association, the first action embedding may be identified and processed using a selected domain model to select actions to be performed using a second computer application. The selected domain model may be trained to translate between an action space of the second computer application and the action embedding space.

Abstract: A docker image is received. The docker image is for a container. The container contains files that allow for virtualization of applications that run within the container. The docker image is parsed to identify layer files in the docker image. Installed software components (e.g., installed files) and/or hardware components in the layer files are identified. Software application index calls are made to generate information that identifies relationships between the installed software components and/or hardware components. The relationships between the installed software components and/or hardware components are then displayed to a user.

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.
