Patent number: 11102229Abstract: An illustrative embodiment of a computer-implemented process for identifying a request invalidating a session excludes all marked logout requests of a Web application, crawls an identified next portion of the Web application and responsive to a determination, in one instance, that the state of the crawl is out of session, logs in to the Web application. The computer-implemented process further selects all crawl requests sent since a last time the crawl was in-session, excluding all marked logout requests and responsive to a determination that requests remain, crawls a selected next unprocessed request. Responsive to a determination, in the next instance, that state of the crawl is out of session and the selected request meets logout request criteria, the computer-implemented process marks the selected request as a logout request.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 2019Date of Patent: August 24, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Paul Ionescu, Iosif Viorel Onut, Ori Segal, Wayne Duncan Smith

Patent number: 10901730Abstract: Identifying equivalent JavaScript events includes receiving source code containing two JavaScript events for equivalency analysis, extracting an HTML element containing an event from each JavaScript event and analyzing the extracted HTML elements. Responsive to a determination that the HTML elements are of a same type according to equivalency criteria B, and responsive to a determination that the HTML elements have a same number of attributes according to equivalency criteria C, a determination is made whether JavaScript function calls of each JavaScript event are similar according to equivalency criteria A. Responsive to a determination that the JavaScript function calls are similar according to equivalency criteria A, and responsive to a determination that the other attributes of the HTML elements satisfy equivalency criteria D, the JavaScript events are identified as equivalent.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2018Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Gregor von Bochmann, Nevon C.

Patent number: 8793346Abstract: A computer-implemented process, computer program product, and apparatus for identifying session identification information. A recording is initiated and an operation sequence of interest is performed while recording and the recording ceases. Responsive to a determination that the operation sequence of interest was successful, information from the operation sequence of interest is saved as recorded information and responsive to a determination that a same operation sequence of interest was recorded, the recorded information from each operation sequence of interest is compared. Differences in the recorded information are identified to form identified differences and a session identifier is constructed using the identified differences.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2012Date of Patent: July 29, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Paul Ionescu, Guy-Vincent Jourdan, Iosif Viorel Onut, Ori Segal, Wayne Duncan Smith, Gregor von Bochmann
