Application: Generating test data for application performance (Patent ID: US20240104009A9)

The patent filed by IBM focuses on a computer-implemented method for extracting test datasets to enhance testing and resource optimization. The method involves generating an impact scoring table of job transformations based on source code analysis, creating data extraction rules, extracting a test dataset, evaluating against user-defined thresholds, and outputting the representative test dataset through a user interface. The system also executes a test run on a full dataset, identifies bottlenecks, generates a recommendation report, retrieves source datasets, and user requirements, and performs runtime monitoring and analysis.

Furthermore, the patent includes claims for a computer system and a computer program product that implement the method described. These claims detail additional functionalities such as identifying connections between execution steps and source code, retrieving job-related data from databases, executing automated analysis tools, and comparing runtime performance parameters. The system and program product aim to streamline the process of extracting test datasets by leveraging source code analysis, impact scoring, and user-defined thresholds to optimize testing and resource allocation in distributed data processing environments.
