Abstract:
1. A method of detecting an anomaly comprising: storing data associated with a master track, wherein the data in the master track corresponds to a sequence of one or more inputs associated with user interactions; receiving an indication that a first computer system monitoring instrument is desired to begin monitoring a first resource of a computer system upon satisfaction of a start criterion during a replay of the master track; and configuring the first instrument to begin monitoring performance of the first resource upon satisfaction of the start criterion during a replay of the master track, wherein monitoring performance includes collecting data associated with input to and output from the first resource; and wherein the master track is replayed two or more times, and during each replay, the sequence of one or more inputs associated with user interactions is configured to be again input into the computer system to generate an output track, and wherein a difference, if any, is determined between a first output track associated with a first replay of the master track and a second output track associated with a second replay of the master track.
