Abstract: Disclosed subject matter includes a testing method that accesses tracing data, comprising a plurality of tracing records corresponding to a plurality of test cases executed on a target system. The target system includes a plurality of microservices configured in accordance with a REST API. A dynamic test analyzer accesses the tracing data and imports a definition of the REST API. The analyzer checks each tracing record for consistency with the API definition. Based on this checking of the tracing records, one or more coverage metrics may be calculated. If any one or more of the coverage metrics fails to exceed a threshold coverage, a testing action may be required. In some cases, the testing action may be selected from either seeking additional coverage of the APIs included in the target system or seeking additional test result coverage.

Abstract: A method of detecting a lipid bilayer formed in a cell of a nanopore based sequencing chip is disclosed. An integrating capacitor is coupled with a lipid membrane, wherein the lipid membrane is between a working electrode and a counter electrode. An alternating current (AC) voltage is applied to the counter electrode. A voltage across the integrating capacitor is periodically sampled by an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). A change in the sampled voltage across the integrating capacitor in response to a change in the AC voltage is determined. Whether the lipid membrane comprises a lipid bilayer is detected based on the determined change in the sampled voltage across the integrating capacitor in response to the change in the AC voltage.
