  • Patent number: 5812436
    Abstract: A method and system for preparing a suite of test scripts for testing a proposed network management application. The proposed network management application, termed a subsystem control facility (SCF), is first defined as a set of requirements with the aid of a developmental tool incorporating a subsystem knowledgebase and a test generation knowledgebase. The subsystem knowledgebase contains the rules governing the operation of a given network and a library of permitted commands, objects, attributes, modifiers and other data. The test generation knowledgebase includes information relating to those commands and object specific to the proposed subsystem control facility set of requirements. A user interface coupled to the knowledgebases permits the selection of types of tests and specific commands and objects to be tested.

  • Patent number: 5724273
    Abstract: A technique for analyzing test results obtained by applying a binary table and a suite of test scripts to a test subsystem control facility for a distributed systems network. The binary table expresses a proposed set of requirements for a proposed subsystem control facility. The suite of test scripts is prepared from a knowledgebase containing test generation information relating to a predetermined global set of subsystem requirements. The test results are compared with the knowledgebase containing the predetermined set of subsystem requirements, and the relative performance of the proposed set of requirements with the predetermined set of subsystem requirements is graphically displayed or printed. The predetermined set of subsystem requirements includes rules governing the operation of a subject network and a library of permitted commands and object types. The proposed set of requirements includes paired selections of commands and object types from the library.
