Verification of security equipment systems interoperability

A method of improving computer system operations by testing and verifying operation of changed computer subsystems, comprising:

• determining, via a workflow server, that a change has occurred at one or more computer subsystems associated with a given workflow implemented by the workflow server, wherein the given workflow comprises one or more triggers and one or more responsive actions;
• determining, via the workflow server, a given time to test the given workflow on the one or more computer subsystems based on one or more of:
• historical computer subsystem data, and a current computer subsystem status;
• providing, via the workflow server, the one or more computer subsystems with a request to test the given workflow at the given time;
• receiving, via the workflow server, respective acknowledgements from the one or more computer subsystems of the request to test the given workflow, the respective acknowledgements either accepting or rejecting the given time to test the given workflow;
• when the given time is accepted, sending, via the workflow server, to the one or more computer subsystems, one or more respective control signals to control the one or more computer subsystems to automatically perform a test of the given workflow at the given time, in a test mode such that one or more of the triggers are activated to perform one or more of the responsive actions as test actions;
• and
• verifying, via the workflow server, the change to the one or more computer subsystems by:
• evaluating results of the test actions of the given workflow, wherein the test actions are performed with a physical sensor in the computer subsystem generating sensor data of the test action and a communication device in the computer subsystem sending the sensor data to the workflow server.
