Patent ID: 8627147

Claim:
A test system, comprising: a hardware processor configured to allow functioning of logic and modules; a data collection module adapted for collecting data from a test system, the data comprising: problem data, associated configuration information, associated performance information, and activity data; a storage module adapted for storing the collected data in an organized format; an analysis module adapted for analyzing the collected data to define at least two activity zones by correlating the problem data, the associated configuration information, the associated performance information, and the activity data, the at least two activity zones comprising: a safe zone where the test system operates normally, and a danger zone where the test system is susceptible to operational problems; and an adjustment module adapted for adjusting available resources and/or workload of the test system to cause the test system to operate in the danger zone thereby increasing a likelihood of fault occurrence for testing purposes, wherein the problem data comprises symptoms and/or markers of the problem.
