Abstract:
1. A server system, comprising: one or more processors; memory, communicatively coupled to the one or more processors; a framework interface, stored in the memory and executable on the one or more processors, to receive testing frameworks having different formats from multiple different services of a distributed-service environment; a tagging module, stored in the memory and executable on the one or more processors, to identify tags that have been associated with tests of the testing frameworks; a unified testing module, stored in the memory and executable on the one or more processors, to receive a request to execute tests of the testing frameworks that are associated with a particular set of one or more tags and, in response, to execute those tests that are associated with the particular set of one or more tags; and a retry module, stored in the memory and executable on the one or more processors, to re-execute tests that fail during execution in accordance with a retry strategy associated with the received request, wherein the received request specifies the retry strategy or the retry strategy has been previously associated with a service of the distributed-services environment that provides the received request.
