Abstract: Embodiments are directed to managing file systems over a network. Jobs may be provided to a storage computer in a file system. Control models may be associated with the jobs. Scores may be generated based on the control models. Each job may be associated with a score provided by its associated control model. And, each job that may be behind its corresponding schedule may be associated with a higher score value than each other job that may be either on its corresponding other schedule or ahead of its corresponding other schedule. Commands may be selected for execution based on the commands being associated with a job that may be associated with the higher score value that may be greater than score values associated with other jobs. The jobs may be ranked based on the updated scores. Subsequent commands may be selected and executed based on the ranking of the jobs.

Abstract: Automatic navigation of a user from a log statement that is selected by the user from a log to a code expression that was executed to generate the selected log statement. The computing system automatically identifies one or more code expressions as candidates for having generated the log statement, and then maps the log statement to these identified candidate code expressions in the code. In response to input from the user selecting the log expression, the computing system uses the mapping to visually provide a correlation between the log statement and the particular code expression, where the one or more mapped code expressions includes the particular code expression that actually generated the log statement.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided in a data processing system having a processor and a memory. The memory comprises instructions which are executed by the processor to cause the processor to implement a graphical editor for managing L-shaped swim lanes in a graphical view of an application process. The graphical editor receives a data serialization file representing a process flow of a software application. The graphical editor renders each synchronous node in the process flow in the graphical view of the application process. A swim lane rendering engine executing within the graphical editor creates an L-shaped swim lane for each asynchronous node in the process flow in the graphical view of the application process. The graphical editor presents the graphical view of the application process via an output device.

Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for enforcing firmware profiles. First, it is determined that a device record associated with a client device fails to specify a firmware profile. A firmware profile is then generated for the client device. Subsequently, a command is generated that causes a firmware of the client device to be configured based at least in part on the firmware profile. The firmware profile is then stored in the device record.

Abstract: Systems and methods for testing software programs during development are described that are provided in part by a software testing framework that can create unit tests for testing individual modules of code, and create corresponding integration tests for testing those code modules during later integration testing, without duplication of effort.

Upon successful execution of the unit test code, the framework receives an indication to test the function calls in a test environment. The framework identifies dependencies of the function calls. The framework then generates integration test code corresponding to the function calls. The integration test code includes dependency resolution code for the evaluated dependencies. The generated integration test code is then deployed in a test environment.
