Abstract: The subject matter herein provides for a method and apparatus for comparison of network systems using live traffic in real-time. The inventive technique presents real-world workload in real-time with no external impact (i.e. no impact on the system under test), and it enables comparison against a production system for correctness verification. A preferred embodiment of the invention is a testing tool for the pseudo-live testing of CDN content staging servers, According to the invention, traffic between clients and the live production CDN servers is monitored by a simulator device, which then replicates this workload onto a system under test (SUT). The simulator detects divergences between the outputs from the SUT and live production servers, allowing detection of erroneous behavior. To the extent possible, the SUT is completely isolated from the outside world so that errors or crashes by this system do not affect either the CDN customers or the end users. Thus, the SUT does not interact with end users (i.e.

Abstract: A method (400) for performing a regression test on a software application is proposed. The regression test involves the execution (481-463) of a subset of selected test cases on the software application (among all the ones being available). In the proposed solution, the selection of the test cases to be regressed (409-448) is performed according to an effectiveness-based criterion. For this purpose, an effectiveness index of each test case is calculated (424-442) according to its results being obtained during previous executions of the test case; preferably, the effectiveness index is based on the frequency of negative results of the test case (and secondarily on their variability and recency). The test cases whose effectiveness indexes reach a predefined threshold are then selected (448) for running the regression test (on the assumption that they should be more effective in detecting errors of the software application).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a verification system and method for BCM software wherein data extracted from an orthogonal array are applied to verification for BCM software to reduce the number of tests such that verification for each BCM can be performed in a short period of time before manufacturing a prototype, reliability of verification results can be improved using a verification program regardless of an evaluator, and errors in the software for each BCM can be found and corrected at an early stage. To this end, the present invention provided a verification system for BCM software which comprises a BCM for controlling functions of convenience equipment in a vehicle; a computer equipped with a verification program and capable of exchanging information with the BCM through serial communication; and a power supply unit for applying power to the computer and the BCM.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that inserts faults to test code paths. The system starts by placing fault-inserting method calls at join points within methods in program code. The system then executes the program code during a testing process. As a method is executed during the testing process, the system executes the corresponding fault-inserting method. This fault-inserting method checks a configuration database to determine whether a fault is to be simulated for the method and, if so, simulates a fault for the method.

Abstract: Various technologies and techniques are disclosed for performing load tests based upon user pace. A load test application is provided. Load test settings are received from a user that includes a test mix based upon user pace. A test start interval is calculated using the text mix. A load test is performed based upon the text mix. For example, the tests are executed at a pace that is based upon the test start interval for the particular user profile that the test is contained within.

Abstract: A simulated internet is connected to a corporate network to more easily and effectively facilitate testing the impact of internet security devices and settings on internet software. The simulated internet has communications pathways between two firewall devices, a web proxy and a publishing firewall, that also protect the corporate network. A test web server on the corporate network is published to the simulated internet by the publishing firewall through reverse proxy as a unique internet name that only exists on the simulated internet One or more test client machines on the corporate network are configured to use the forward proxy firewall of the corporate web proxy to access the unique internet name. With this configuration all the pieces are in place for what the Internet does, except the simulated internet is a private internet under the control of the software tester.

Abstract: Disclosed are an information processing system and computer readable medium for performing a system test on a program. A test plan associated with a system test is created. The system test is for testing a program within an environment. At least one test trigger to be monitored for during the system test is defined within the test plan. Execution of the system test on a system under test for the at least one test trigger is monitored. An occurrence of the at least one test trigger is determined. The test plan is modified to take into account the occurrence of the at least one test trigger in response to determining the occurrence. Execution of the system test is continued based on the modified test plan.

Abstract: To achieve end-to-end security, traditional machine-to-machine security measures are insufficient if the integrity of the graphical user interface (GUI) is compromised. GUI logic flaws are a category of software vulnerabilities that result from logic flaws in GUI implementation. The invention described here is a technology for uncovering these flaws using a systematic reasoning approach. Major steps in the technology include: (1) mapping a visual invariant to a program invariant; (2) formally modeling the program logic, the user actions and the execution context, and systematically exploring the possibilities of violations of the program invariant; (3) finding real spoofing attacks based on the exploration.
