Abstract: Received source code is transformed according to a predefined rule set to create an encoded text string representation of each function of the received source code. Each encoded text string representation of each function of the received source code includes a text string that identifies each parameter type of the respective function of the received source code, and is compared in real time with encoded text string representations of stored source code fragments in a repository. Each stored source code fragment is transformed according to the same predefined rule set into the respective encoded text string representations that each include a text string that identifies each parameter type of a respective function of the respective stored source code fragment. An indication of each portion of the received source code determined to already exist as a stored source code fragment in the repository is outputted in response to the real-time comparison.

Abstract: A method of providing feedback on source code being created includes receiving source code and processing the received source code according to a predefined rule set to create a representation of the received source code. A source code repository is accessed that includes source code fragments. Each source code fragment in the repository has been processed according to the predefined rule set to create representations of the respective source code fragments. The representation of the received source code is compared to each representation of the source code fragments. A matching score is calculated for the representation of the received source code with respect to each representation of the source code fragments based upon an output of the comparison step. An output derived from the calculated matching scores is presented.

Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a system dynamically schedules performance of tasks, and comprises a computer system including at least one processor. The system determines resources required or utilized by each task for performance of that task on a target system, and compares the determined resources of the tasks to identify tasks with similar resource requirements. The identified tasks with similar resource requirements are scheduled to be successively performed on the target system. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and computer program product for dynamically scheduling performance of tasks in substantially the same manner described above.

Abstract: An indication of a change to at least one source file associated with a software build is received via a processor. A set of test levels of a level-based testing suite are sequentially processed, where each test level subsequently processed includes tests with decreasing qualitative testing information relative to tests associated with previously-processed test levels. For each processed test level, at least one test is selected that tests the change to the at least one source file associated with the software build, test coverage relative to a target risk level for the software build is determined for each selected test, and test selection is terminated upon determining that the test coverage for the selected tests at least meets the target risk level for the software build.

Abstract: Graphical User Interface (GUI) automation tools continue to evolve in their sophistication and complexity. However, it is still necessary to tailor such automation to the machine configuration that the test is being run on. This can be a costly and time consuming exercise when developing software for a myriad of different platforms. Broadly contemplated herein, in accordance with at least one embodiment of the invention, are arrangements and processes for recording a test solely on one machine while generating images on all the other available environments.
