US 2015/0309922 A1 · ON-DEMAND SOFTWARE TEST ENVIRONMENT GENERATION

Abstract

A method and a system to create a software test environment on demand are described. An example system includes a dependency module to, upon receiving a command identifying a primary function to be created in a test environment, identify one or more dependencies of the primary function. The dependencies are other functions or databases that the primary function depends upon. The dependency module generates a topology of the test environment that indicates the relationship of the dependencies to the primary function. A provisioning module provisions a plurality of pools based on the topology. An enterprise service bus (ESB) routing module updates ESB routing of the primary function to route to the plurality of pools in the test environment. A credentials module provides credentials of the pools in the test environment.

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

a processor and executable instructions accessible on a computer-readable medium that, when executed, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
identifying a primary function to be tested in a test environment;
identifying one or more dependent functions of the primary function, the dependent functions including functions that the primary function requires for operation within a production environment;
generating a topology to be implemented within the test environment that that reflects the relationship of the dependent functions to the primary function;
provisioning each of a set of pools to create the topology within the test environment so that both the primary function and the dependent functions are implemented within the test environment;
and
updating ESB routing of the primary function to route the primary function from the production environment outside the test environment to the set of pools in the test environment.
