Abstract
A system and method for remote testing of enterprise software applications (ESA) allows one or more testers to remotely access an ESA and remotely test the ESA. In at least one embodiment, the ESA resides in a testing platform that includes one more computers that are provisioned for testing. “Provisioning” a computer system (such as one or more servers) refers to preparing, configuring, and equipping the computer system to provide services to one or more users. In at least one embodiment, the computer system is provisioned to create an ESA operational environment in accordance with a virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) template interacting with virtualization software.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- transforming a first computer into an enterprise software application (ESA) testing platform computer system in accordance with a virtual desktop infrastructure template interacting with virtualization software executing on the first computer;
- and
- performing by the enterprise software application (ESA) testing platform computer system programmed with code stored in a memory and executing by a processor of the ESA testing platform computer system:
- receiving a request with the ESA testing platform computer system from an end user using a second computer to access an ESA hosted by the ESA testing platform computer system that is remote from the second computer used by the end user;
- receiving data with the ESA testing platform computer system from the second computer to test the ESA, wherein the remote ESA testing platform computer system is provisioned to emulate an actual operating environment for which the ESA is being tested;
- and
- testing the ESA in the ESA testing platform computer system.

An apparatus comprising:
- one or more processors;
- a memory, coupled to the one or more processors, that includes code stored therein and executable by the one or more processors to:
- transform a first computer into an enterprise software application (ESA) testing platform computer system in accordance with a virtual desktop infrastructure template interacting with virtualization software executing on the first computer, wherein the ESA testing platform computer system hosts an enterprise software application;
- receive a request with the ESA testing platform computer system from an end user using a second computer to access an ESA hosted by the ESA testing platform computer system that is remote from the second computer used by the end user;
- receive data with the ESA testing platform computer system from the second computer to test the ESA, wherein the remote ESA testing platform computer system is provisioned to emulate an actual operating environment for which the ESA is being tested;
- and
- test the ESA in the ESA testing platform computer system.
4 more elements
A non-transitory, computer readable medium comprising code stored therein and executable by a processor for:
- transforming a first computer into an ESA testing platform computer system in accordance with a virtual desktop infrastructure template interacting with virtualization software executing on the first computer;
- receiving a request with the ESA testing platform computer system from an end user using a second computer to access an enterprise software application (ESA) hosted by the ESA testing platform computer system that is remote from the second computer used by the end user;
- receiving data with the ESA testing platform computer system from the second computer to test the ESA, wherein the remote ESA testing platform computer system is provisioned to emulate an actual operating environment for which the ESA is being tested;
- and
- testing the ESA in the ESA testing platform computer system.
