  • Patent number: 11922182
    Abstract: A system comprises data processing hardware and memory hardware. The memory hardware is in communication with the data processing hardware, and stores instructions that, when executed on the data processing hardware, cause the data processing hardware to perform a plurality of operations. In some examples, one of the operations may include receiving instance management configuration data for a single-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) application. Another operation may include further include receiving an image of the single-tenant SaaS application. Yet another operation can include generating, by the control plane manager, a control plane based on the instance management configuration data. The control plane is configured to create multiple instances of the single-tenant SaaS application based on the received image, and to manage the instances of the single-tenant SaaS application based on the received instance management configuration data.

  • Patent number: 11907106
    Abstract: Software code is tested to determine relative performance of the software code. Successfully executing a test may be used to flag problems in a code repository to be corrected or criteria for accepting code for acceptance to the repository. To further evaluate test results, the test may be run several times on the same code version to determine a test result stability score describing how the test results may vary in different executions, such as a frequency that the code passes the test. Based on the score, additional tests may be run to further refine test result stability score. To evaluate time-variance of testing, when a code version fails a test, a previous version of the code may be run with the same test and the results compared to determine if a new regression was introduced.

  • Patent number: 11829742
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for container-based server environments. In some implementations, a server environment is provided using a plurality of containers that provide instances of different software modules. The plurality of containers includes a first container running a first software image of a particular software module. Various operations can be performed in response to determining that an updated software image is available for the particular software module. For example, execution is started for a second container that provides an instance of the updated software image. Incoming requests are to the second container while continuing to process, using the first container, one or more requests that were received before starting execution of the second container. In response to determining that a level of activity of the first container is below a threshold, the execution of the first container is stopped.

  • Patent number: 11782753
    Abstract: A system for scheduling remediation includes a memory, a processor in communication with the memory, a container scheduled on a first node, a scheduler executing on the processor, and a node-local-unscheduler (“NLU”). The scheduler has a watch module. The NLU executes on the processor to determine a status of the container as failing validation. The NLU has access to scheduling policies corresponding to the container and the first node. Responsive to determining the status of the container as failing validation, the NLU annotates the container and stops execution of the container. The watch module executes on the processor to detect the annotation associated with the container. Responsive to detecting the annotation, the container is rescheduled to a second node.

  • Patent number: 11775417
    Abstract: A service testing system is disclosed to enable consistent replay of stateful requests on a service whose output depends on the service's execution state prior to the requests. In embodiments, the service implements a compute engine that executes service requests and a storage subsystem that maintains execution states during the execution of stateful requests. When a stateful request is received during testing, the storage subsystem creates an in-memory test copy of the execution state to support execution of the request, and provides the test copy to the compute engine. In embodiments, the storage subsystem will create a separate instance of execution state for each individual test run. The disclosed techniques enable mock execution states to be easily created for testing of stateful requests, in a manner that is transparent to the compute engine and does not impact production execution data maintained by the service.

  • Patent number: 11755319
    Abstract: A method includes collecting code development data associated with development of code files on a per user basis. A predicted code execution performance score is determined based on weighting one or more developer attributes captured in the code development data on the per user basis, the predicted code execution performance score indicative of a predicted likelihood of a code quality issue, where the one or more developer attributes are based at least in part on personnel data including a level of developer experience and a history of observed development activities of an associated developer from review data. One or more resources of one or more code execution servers associated with execution of selected files are predictively allocated based on the predicted code execution performance score. One or more code execution metrics are captured associated with executing selected files on the one or more code execution servers.

  • Patent number: 11755462
    Abstract: An embodiment features a method of generating test data. An application-level schema corresponding to a source relational database is received. The schema defines constraints comprising one or more of inter-field, inter-record, and inter-object constraints between related data in the source relational database. A random walk is performed on a graph of nodes representing data in the source relational database. At respective ones of the nodes, corresponding ones of the data in the source relational database are selected along a path ordered in accordance with the constraints defined in the schema. Synthetic test data is generated based on one or more statistical models of the data selected from the source relational database. Data values are generated for respective fields of an object defined in the schema, and data values are generated for records related to the object based on one or more of the constraints defined in the schema.

  • Patent number: 11704115
    Abstract: In certain embodiments, a software pipeline (“pipeline”) is configured by the use of gates for progressing an application from one stage to another (e.g., from a development stage to a production stage). A configuration file having a set of attribute values that is descriptive of an application, and a gate mapping file having information associated with the gates to be invoked for different combinations of attribute values are obtained. The configuration file is processed using the gate mapping file to determine a set of gates to be invoked for progressing the application in the pipeline based on the attribute values of the application. The set of gates are invoked to cause a corresponding set of software routines to be executed for progressing the application.

  • Patent number: 11704230
    Abstract: In some examples, a system processes event data and video frames produced by a program during execution of the program, the event data representing user actions with respect to a graphical user interface (GUI) of the program. The system identifies an area of the GUI that corresponds to a respective user action of the user actions, wherein identifying the area of the GUI uses a first video frame before an event corresponding to the respective user action, and a second video frame after the event corresponding to the respective user action. The system identifies, based on the identified area, a test object representing a user interface (UI) element, and generates a test script for testing the program, the test script including the test object.
