Abstract: Cloud-based testing of applications allows an application under test (AUT) to be subjected to test loads mimicking expected high volume real-time production loads. Test loads can be applied from geographically distributed test load sources. During testing, the system can monitor usage of AUTs and the underlying cloud infrastructure (virtual machines, test servers, etc.) on which the AUT is executing. An AUT can be scaled, for instance, additional instances of the application can be started, and additional virtual machines can be configured and test servers provisioned if AUT or infrastructure usage exceeds specified thresholds during testing. A testing services provider can supply a web-based unified management console from which admins and test users can manage AUT testing.

Abstract: A system and computer-implemented method for transforming source code in an original natively encoded format to a locale neutral format, wherein data types and functions in the original format are estimated for compliance with the locale neutral format and an estimation is made as to the amount of code conversions necessary to comply with the locale neutral format. In addition, image files referenced by the source code is analyzed and embedded text extracted for enabling translation during the localization process.
