  • Patent number: 11048620
    Abstract: Aspects capture test coverage in a distributed system, wherein a processor instigates execution of a unique hypertext transfer request protocol test case within a distributed system of different, networked servers. The header of the unique test case includes a unique name for the unique test case, and the distributed system servers are each configured to, in response to processing a test case, generate a time-stamped log entry that includes header data for the processed test case and a uniform resource locator address of the processing server. The processor thus maps the unique test case to a subset of the distributed system servers as endpoint servers of the unique test case, in response to determining that the uniform resource locator addresses of each of the subset endpoint servers are listed within generated log entries of the endpoint servers in association with the unique test case name.

  • Publication number: 20170109159
    Abstract: Techniques are described for updating documentation for an application including but not limited to a web application, a software application or a mobile application. In one example, techniques include generating an entry in a documentation for an application, linking the entry to an element of the application, including recording a run-time state for the element; determining that the element has changed; and generating an alert indicating that the element has changed.
