Abstract: A system for testing two or more applications associated with a computerized process may include a central repository, a user interface and a testing coordinator. The central repository may be used to store at least one test case each including a test data set and two or more sets of test scripts. The user interface may facilitate a selection of one or more test cases for use by the testing coordinator. The testing coordinator may be configured to test the operation of the computerized process by initiating testing of a first application by a first test tool using the test data set and a first set of scripts and initiating testing of the second application by the second test tool using the test data set and the second set of scripts from the selected test case. In some cases, the first test tool is incompatible with the second test tool.

Abstract: A replica site is restored to a selected point in time by determining data state at the selected point in time, writing data indicative of that data state to the replica site storage array, and moving extents of the data written to the replica site storage array to selected tiers in order to achieve a predetermined level of performance. A journal of statistical meta data indicative of IO activity may be used to select the tiers.

Abstract: A computing system can provide user interfaces and back-end operations to facilitate review and invalidation of executed jobs. The system can provide an interface that allows the operator to review quality-control information about a completed job. Once the operator identifies a job as invalid, the operator can be presented with further options, such as whether to invalidate only the reviewed job or the job and all its descendants. The operator can also review antecedent jobs to an invalid job (e.g., in order to trace the root of the problem) and can selectively invalidate antecedent jobs.
