Abstract: In a production environment, an entry is logged in a log journal to represent a read operation on a record of a file. A problematic transaction in a batch job is selected and set of operations performed by the problematic transaction is intercepted. The set includes a combination of read, write, update, delete operations, and operations that use external resources. A window of entries is determined in the log journal where the entry is a beginning entry in the window and an ending entry is a last entry captured in the log journal before detecting the error. From the window, those entries are filtered that correspond to the record. A final value of the record is copied from the production environment to a development environment and rolled back in the development environment to an initial value stored in the beginning entry. The problematic transaction is performed in the development environment.

Abstract: A test suite is executed to test a computer program for a plurality of variables. A variable value is generated for each variable of the plurality of variables at a predetermined location of the computer program. Whether a test included in the test suite is successful is determined. If the test is successful, the variable value is recorded as part of a success value set. If the test is not successful, the variable value is recorded as part of a failure value set. A confidence metric is calculated for the variable value. A relevance metric for each variable of the plurality of variables is measured, based on a Jaccard distance between the success value set and the failure value set. The failure value set, the success value set, the confidence metric for the variable value, and the relevance metric for each variable of the plurality of variables are presented.

Abstract: A method and system for synchronizing components of heterogeneous systems. A request is made to a host computer for a latest version of a client component pertaining to client code identified in a previously received communication. An object representing a latest version of a client component pertaining to client code is retrieved from one or more loadable modules at a host computer. The host computer includes a host component. The host component is host software configured to be executed in the host computer. A host component binary is built with a set of additional components bound to the host component binary. An encoding generated during compilation of the additional components transforms the client component into the object with an array populated with data of the client component. The object is built during link time into the one or loadable modules tightly bound with the host component binary.

Abstract: Selected information to be used for code coverage collection of an application is obtained. The selected information is a subset of debug information determined for the application and includes entry point offset information for entry points of the application. Using the entry point offset information, one or more traps are installed in the application. Code coverage collection is performed, in which a determination is made as to whether a trap has been reached. Based on the trap being reached, reach information is provided. The reach information is used to determine code being utilized in the application and for which one or more test cases are to be specifically targeted, rather than testing the application in its entirety, to reduce cycle time within the processor.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes generating static analysis data by performing static analysis on a program. A breakpoint is set in the program automatically, by a computer processor, based on the static analysis data. The breakpoint is hit during a runtime of the program. A program bug is automatically identified at a context location of the breakpoint when the breakpoint is hit during the runtime of the program. An interactive debugging session of the program is launched automatically at the context location of the breakpoint, based on the identifying the program bug.

Abstract: An injector device for veterinary use, such as to inject vaccine into the chicken breast muscle. The device includes a finger-held unit connected to a vaccine pumping main unit using a flexible conduit. The operator can quickly start an injection by stroking alongside the breast edge of a grasped chicken, using his fingertips to touch and select the muscle, then start an injection by pressing the finger-held unit against the chicken breast in a designated way. The electric buttons in the finger-held unit may activate a process that actuates a mechanism to inject a hypodermic needle into the chicken's muscle, the pumping system may-then be actuated to pump the vaccine into the muscle through the injected needle.

Abstract: Some fluid coupling devices described herein are configured for use in fluid systems for purposes of providing a repeatable, aseptic fluid coupling system. Such repeatable, aseptic fluid coupling systems are configured to facilitate multiple connection and disconnection cycles while repeatably establishing a sterile fluid pathway through the coupling system. The repeatable, aseptic fluid coupling systems can repeatably establish a sterile fluid pathway through the coupling system even though the coupling system may be used in a non-sterile environment.

Abstract: A process for automatic version synchronization of dependent components running on heterogeneous systems. In response to receiving a communication using a predetermined protocol through a network at a host, it is determined whether required client code is not present on the client. In response to a determination required client code is not present on the client, a required version of the client component is requested at the host. One or more loadable modules are located at the host bound with a host component that represents the client component. An object comprising the one or more loadable modules is sent to the client, wherein the client receives, loads and runs the object as a new component to communicate with the host component at a latest level.
