Abstract: A computer-implemented method comprises, using a server computer that is communicatively coupled to an instance of an application program, and under stored program control: collecting answer data from a computing device by executing input AI instructions, to programmatically select a plurality of question data representing questions about configuration values of the application program, to cause rendering the question data in a user interface of a display device coupled to the computing device, and to select other question data automatically via a decision tree embodied in the input AI instructions; receiving a plurality of answer data from the computing device in response to the rendering of the question data; automatically repeating executing the input AI instructions and receiving the plurality of answer data to obtain a complete set of answer data; based on applying pre-defined programmatic rules to the answer data, identifying a plurality of contextually relevant domain objects and storing the domain obj

Abstract: A regression testing system comprises an automatic test tool configured to capture a first web screen shot and a second web screen shot of a webpage, where the webpage has undergone an update or edit. The regression testing system also comprises a visual comparator configured to identify similar areas in the first web screen shot and the second web screen shot. The visual comparator receives, and compares characteristics of, the web screen shots. Furthermore, the regression testing system generates a report with marked different characteristics between the first and second web screen shots. The regression testing system identifies similar areas in the first and second web screen shots shot even if the similar areas are at different locations within the web screen shots. The comparison performed by the visual comparator includes performing a pixel comparison combined with a marking algorithm to group differences in smaller, related but separate areas.
