Abstract: A system (100) includes an application model (140) to characterize a given application (110) for deployment on a cloud (130). A deployment manager (120) analyzes an application requirement for the given application (110) based on the application model (140) and policies (150) associated with the given application (110) to substantially match infrastructure resources (160) in the cloud (130) to fulfill the application requirement. A test manager (170) is employed to configure and launch a test suite of application deployments for the given application (110) via the deployment manager (120).

Abstract: A method for creating a virtual callback object using a client callback object. A client device executes a client application. A client callback object is used by the client application in a client/server transaction between a server device and the client device. A recorder module captures the client/server transaction between the client device and the server device, and the client callback object is used in the client/server transaction. Internal client operations may be filtered from the client callback object to create the virtual callback object. A script may be generated using the virtual callback object.

Abstract: A graphical user interface (GUI) is displayed. The GUI indicates a start time when any of a number of particular resources is available for an entirety of a contiguous block of time. The contiguous block of time is specified by a scheduling request including a non-specific resource. Each particular resource individually satisfies the scheduling request.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a computer system to store application state data associated with a transaction between a client computing device and a server computing device comprises a processor, a memory module coupled to the processor and comprising logic instructions stored on a computer readable medium which, when executed by the processor, configure the processor to receive, from a capturing module that monitors transactions between one or more client computing devices and the server computing device a method, an object on which the method is being performed, and metadata associated with at least one of the object and the method, generate at least one method metadata message that uniquely identifies the method, generate at least one method invocation message that describes characteristics of a single method call, and generate at least one object instance that describes an instance of the object, and store the at least one method metadata message, the at least one method invocation message, and the at least one obj
