  • Patent number: 9229766
    Abstract: Request data is identified that describes a request of a second program by a first program intercepted by a first exit in the first program. Response data is identified that describes a response by the second program to the request as intercepted by a second exit in the first program. A virtual service configured to model operation of the second program is instantiated based on the request data and response data. In another aspect, a request by the first program to the second program is intercepted by the first exit and the request is redirected to the virtual service. A response is received as generated by the virtual service and the response is returned to the first program using the second exit.
