Abstract: Techniques are described for generating user customized simulation instances for testing and evaluation of software applications and services. In some cases, the system may generate user specific simulation instances to replicate in the simulation a user experience of each user when the user is engaged with the live version of the software application or service.

Abstract: A platform configured to provide a simulated content consuming environment or application accessible to one or more test users in order to determine one or more metrics associated with the user interface and/or overall experience of the streaming service and/or content that may be provided by the streaming service.

Abstract: A platform configured to provide virtual glass in order to augment and improve focus group sessions for each actor within the ecosystem. The platform may be configured to allow a moderator, one or more test subjects, and one or more client users to participate in a focus group session at geographically diverse locations. The platform may also be configured to supplement the focus group experience by allowing for dialog and communication between the client users. In some cases, the platform may also be configured to generate and provide real time status indicators associate with the tests subject, real time text-based transcripts of the sessions, and recommendations as to the focus group direction to the moderator.
