Method and system for data instance-based automatic message map construction

A non-transitory computer readable medium including instructions executable by one or more processors for:

• generating a test dataset;
• inputting the test dataset to a first software system and a second software system that are to be integrated;
• triggering a first set of one or more source messages from the first software system and a second set of one or more source messages from the second software system based on the test dataset;
• receiving the first set of one or more source messages and the second set of one or more source messages;
• and
• analyzing the first set of one or more source messages and the second set of one or more source messages to determine a first transformation and a second transformation, respectively, wherein the first transformation specifies a mapping sufficient to transform one or more messages output from the first software system into a format readable by the second software system, and wherein the second transformation specifies a mapping sufficient to transform one or more messages output from the second software system into a format readable by the first software system.

An apparatus for facilitating integrating software systems, the apparatus comprising:

• one or more processors;
• a tangible processor-readable storage device including instructions for:
• generating a test dataset;
• inputting the test dataset to a first software system and a second software system that are to be integrated;
• triggering a first set of one or more source messages from the first software system and a second set of one or more source messages from the second software system based on the test dataset;
• receiving the first set of one or more source messages and the second set of one or more source messages;
• and
• analyzing the first set of one or more source messages and the second set of one or more source messages to determine a first transformation and a second transformation, respectively, wherein the first transformation specifies a mapping sufficient to transform one or more messages output from the first software system into a format readable by the second software system, and wherein the second transformation specifies a mapping sufficient to transform one or more messages output from the second software system into a format readable by the first software system.
