  • Method of and system for testing compatibility with an external API upgrade
    Patent number: 6591417
    Abstract: A system for tests the compatibility of an external API upgrade with an existing user application during the installation of the API upgrade by installing the API upgrade in a temporary address space and launching a test process for each API of the API upgrade that is used by the existing user application. If the result received from each of the APIs matches the result expected from the API, the system completes installation of the API in permanent address space. If any test process terminates unexpectedly, or any result fails to match the expected result, the system notifies the user of a problem and terminates installation of the API upgrade.
