  • Publication number: 20200289001
    Abstract: A wearable device has a housing containing electronics and a band that retains the wearable device on a user's arm. Each end of the housing has a receptacle with a ridge around the opening of the receptacle. A band comprises a strip of flexible material. A pair of protrusions with enlarged ends made from an elastomeric material extend from an inner surface of the band. A portion of the inner surface of the band between the protrusions is in contact with at least a portion of an upper surface of the housing. The band is joined to the housing by aligning each protrusion with a corresponding receptacle and applying pressure. As a result of the applied pressure part of the protrusion temporarily deforms, enters the receptacle, and resumes substantially the previous shape thus holding the protrusion within the receptacle and the band to the housing.

  • Publication number: 20150261658
    Abstract: A device receives, from a user device, a request to perform a test of software on a test device. The test device includes a device that simulates a device provided in a cloud computing environment, and the software includes software to be implemented in the cloud computing environment. The device determines whether the test device includes available resources to perform the test, and causes the request and the software to be provided to the test device when the test device includes the available resources to perform the test. The available resources are utilized to perform the test of the software and to generate results based on performance of the test. The device receives, from the test device, the results that include information indicating whether the software passed or failed the test. The device provides the results to the user device.
