Abstract: One embodiment provides a system for optimizing business processes comprising an analyzer component configured to retrieve testing data on a business application, wherein the testing data is generated before deployment of the business application. The analyzer component is further configured to retrieve actual data on the business application, wherein the actual data is generated during deployment of the business application. The analyzer component is further configured to analyze the actual data and the testing data to identify at least one business process from the actual data, wherein an identified business process from the actual data is attempted to be matched with a baseline business process defined during testing. The system further comprises a report generator configured to output results from analysis of the actual data and the testing data. Output results may be used to optimize testing and to correlate problems encountered in the field with situations encountered during testing.

Abstract: An apparatus (100) in an example comprises a test-script generator (704) and selection logic (114). The test-script generator (704) serves to create a test script (116) through identification of currently-available elements (604, 606, 608, 610, 612, 614, 616, 618) of an application (106) under test. The test script (116) is employable to exercise the application (106). The selection logic (114) serves to identify elements (406, 408) of a currently-executing component script (402) within the test script (116), contemporaneous with execution of the test script (116), that may be affected by graphical user interface changes made to the application (106). The identification of the elements (406, 408) of the currently-executing component script within the test script (116), contemporaneous with execution of the test script (116), that may be affected by the graphical user interface changes by the selection logic is contemporaneous with the exercise of the application (106) by the test script (116).

Abstract: A test-centric model of an application is constructed. Each resource specified by each test governing an application is added to the test-centric model. The test or tests specifying an resource are linked to the resource within the test-centric model. A composition of the application is defined using the one or more tests, as the resources specified by the one or more tests, within the test-centric model of the application.
