Abstract

See full text

A method for testing a system under test (SUT) in an active environment includes executing, by the testing system, on the SUT, a test from a set of tests. The method further includes, monitoring a first execution time to complete the test on the SUT in the active environment. Based on the first execution time being different than a second execution time of the test, marking, by the testing system, a code path associated with the test. The second execution time is a duration to complete execution of the test on the SUT in a clean execution environment. The method further includes communicating, by the testing system, the code path for analyzing a soft failure of the SUT in the active environment, wherein the soft failure occurs in the active environment during execution of the SUT based at least on a parameter of the active environment.
