Method and apparatus for assembling custom compliance tests for configurable specifications

摘要

A process for building a platform compliance test for only software components necessary to an application is disclosed. Initially the application is parsed to reveal only component needed for performance of the application, those components names are then checked against components names which are available to the application. A compliance test consisting of compatibility tests associated with the available components is then generated and used to evaluate platforms in which the application is intended to be developed.
