Abstract: Certain example embodiments relate to a Resume Trigger Manager (RTM) and associated computing framework that handles client-server communications associated with automated application testing and/or monitoring, for both a system under test and third-party servers. The RTM in certain example embodiments performs the test execution by routing service request messages from one or more clients to the web server in accordance; maintains a count of open service requests for each client; and relays return messages from the web server to the client(s). When a wait request is received from a given client, the RTM may determine that there are no open service requests for that client and send a wait response message indicating same; and/or that a period of time has elapsed and accordingly interrupt pending service requests for that client, reset that client's counter, and return a wait response message indicating that the predefined period of time has elapsed.
