Claim Text:
1. A method to generate a test vector in datacenter health monitoring using snapshots, the method comprising: collecting a series of the snapshots and metric values associated with monitored health aspects of an application, wherein the application is executed at a source computing environment; identifying state information associated with the series of the snapshots, wherein the state information includes a range of operating states and health performance metrics associated the application; in response to assessing the state information associated with the series of the snapshots, selecting a snapshot from the series of the snapshots based on a historical record associated with the application operating at the source computing environment, wherein the selected snapshot is associated with an operating state from the range of operating states; preserving the snapshot as the test vector associated with a test suite, wherein the test vector is utilized to evaluate a performance of the application at a destination computing environment; capturing incoming messages and outgoing messages for a test period; packaging the selected snapshot from the series of the snapshots and a captured message of the incoming messages and the outgoing messages into a number of test units; and providing the number of test units to a test logic of the test suite for use in a test scenario.
