Abstract
Aspects of the present invention include a method, system and computer program product. The method includes a processor identifying a plurality of workload characteristics by customer industry; identifying one or more workload characteristics within a customer industry; creating a test workload execution model; determining that a peak customer test coverage is beneficial to at least one customer in other customer industries; and reducing, by the processor, a number of test resources allocated to at least one customer in other customer industries.
Claims13
A system comprising:
- a processor in communication with one or more types of memory, the processor configured to:
- identify a plurality of workload attributes by customer industry;
- identify one or more workload attributes within a customer industry;
- create a test workload execution model;
- determine that a peak customer test coverage is beneficial to at least one customer in other customer industries;
- and
- reduce a number of test resources allocated to at least one customer in other customer industries;
- wherein when the processor is configured to determine that a peak customer test coverage is not beneficial to at least one customer in other customer industries, the processor is further configured to maintain a number of test resources allocated to the at least one customer in other customer industries;
- wherein creating a test workload execution model further comprises utilizing a body of available workload work unit activity data, data store activity data, and a workload execution distribution scheme.
A computer program product comprising:
- a non-transitory storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit for performing a method comprising:
- identifying a plurality of workload attributes by customer industry;
- identifying one or more workload attributes within a customer industry;
- creating a test workload execution model;
- determining that a peak customer test coverage is beneficial to at least one customer in other customer industries;
- and
- reducing a number of test resources allocated to at least one customer in other customer industries;
- wherein when the processing circuit is configured to determine that a peak customer test coverage is not beneficial to at least one customer in other customer industries, the processing circuit is further configured to maintain a number of test resources allocated to the at least one customer in other customer industries;
- wherein creating a test workload execution model further comprises utilizing a body of available workload work unit activity data, data store activity data, and a workload execution distribution scheme.
