  • Patent number: 11200154
    Abstract: Examples of techniques for function modification for software application testing are described herein. An aspect includes, based on a function call to a function by an application under test that is being tested using a test case in a testing environment, determining whether modification of the function is enabled. Another aspect includes, based on determining that modification of the function is enabled, running the function in a modified mode.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 11, 2019
    Date of Patent: December 14, 2021
    Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION
    Inventors: Steven Partlow, Joseph Griesemer, Thomas Rankin, Frank Hemsing
  • Patent number: 11048618
    Abstract: Examples of techniques for environment modification for software application testing are described herein. An aspect includes, based on starting testing of an application under test using a test case in a testing environment and determining that modification of the testing environment is enabled, modifying the testing environment. Another aspect includes running the testing of the application under test using the test case in the modified testing environment. Another aspect includes, based on detection of an error during the testing of the application under test, determining whether the error was caused by the modified testing environment. Another aspect includes, based on determining that the error was caused by the modified testing environment, suppressing the error and continuing the testing of the application under test in the modified testing environment. Another aspect includes, based on determining that the error was not caused by the modified testing environment, percolating the error.
