Abstract: A system for providing support in creating build code, scan code, and test code for source code based on stored application and program configurations. The configurations are set for the application and/or program for which the source code is developed, and the configurations indicate the various programs, applications, databases, third-party applications, or the like with which the source code may interface. During the build action, the system will create the build code to interface with various programs, applications, databases, third-party applications, or the like, and compile the code. During the scan action, the system will create the scan code to allow the source code to interface with the scanning application to check the quality of the code. During the test action the system will create the test code to allow execution within a test environment in which the code will operate.

Abstract: Specific images of an OS are built using only the driver bindings that are necessary to link the OS to the particular hardware of a client device. A device tree of the client device is analyzed to identify the hardware components. Databases of different hardware source code for various hardware drivers are maintained and used to craft the driver bindings and instances for the hardware of the client device. The device tree is also analyzed to identify compatibility strings of the various hardware on the client device. The hardware source code is searched for these compatibility strings to see if a driver exists in the databases of hardware source code. Specific driver bindings and driver instances with the actual variable names and configuration parameters of the identified hardware drivers are then generated and included in an image of the OS that may be installed on the client device.

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. The framework receives function calls, each corresponding to a unit test function. The framework generates unit test code based on the function calls, which is executed on a development device. 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.

Abstract: Machine-trained models are generated based on a model description that defines parameters for training the model and that can inherit parameters from parent model descriptions. When a parent model description changes, the changes made to the parent model description are applied to the model description automatically. When a target model is re-generated, a description of the set of parameters for generating the target model is received. The parent model is then identified from the received description, and a description of the set of parameters for generating the parent model is retrieved. Using the description for the target model and the parent model, a pipeline for generating the target model is generated. Finally, the pipeline is executed to generate the target model.

Abstract: Monitoring and troubleshooting tools provide the capability to visualize different levels of a client's application that is deployed as a suite of independent but cooperating services (e.g., as microservices of a microservices-based architecture), collect values of monitored or tracked metrics at those different levels, and visualize values of the metrics at those levels. For example, metrics values can be generated for teams of the microservices.

Abstract: Software specifications can be improved using a software-development tool with feedback notifications. For example, a computing device can receive a textual input in a text box of a text editor from a user, the textual input defining a software specification that describes features of a software application for a software developer that is different from the user. The computing device can determine that a description of a software feature in the software specification excludes a particular descriptor characterizing the software feature. The computing device can, based on determining that the description excludes the particular descriptor, generate a graphical feedback notification indicating that the particular descriptor is absent from the description of the software feature. This feedback can assist the user in developing a more-complete software specification for use by the software developer in a software development process or a software testing process.

Abstract: A graphical block diagram can use an execution order block to enforce an execution order for parallel subtrees. A graphical data flow block diagram is generated that includes parallel subtrees. The parallel subtrees can be connected to input pins of the execution order block in the execution order. The parallel subtrees are processed in the execution order before other blocks connected to the parallel subtrees are processed according to the normal execution order of the graphical program. The execution order of the execution order block is not affected by the other blocks, and the normal execution order of the other blocks according to the graphical program is not affected by the execution order of the execution order block. The techniques described herein improve a model-based development platform.
