Information processing apparatus and non-transitory computer readable medium

An information processing apparatus comprising:

• a virtual machine configuring unit that configures a first virtual machine on which a same image processing program as an old version of an image processing program installed on an image processing apparatus is installed and a second virtual machine on which a new version of the image processing program provided for updating the old version of the image processing program is installed;
• a comparing unit that compares output images from the first and the second virtual machines in response to a same instruction to process an image being input into the first and the second virtual machines;
• and
• a determining unit that determines a validity of update on the basis of a comparison result by the comparing unit.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process for information processing, the process comprising:

• holding a first image processing program that is a same image processing program as an old version of an image processing program installed on an image processing apparatus and allows a computer to function as a first image processing unit and a second image processing program that is a new version of the image processing program provided for updating the old version of the image processing program and allows the computer to function as a second image processing unit;
• loading each of the first image processing program and the second image processing program into the computer;
• comparing output images from the first image processing unit and the second image processing unit in response to a same instruction to process an image being input into the first image processing unit and the second image processing unit;
• and
• determining a validity of update on the basis of a comparison result of the comparing.
