Implementations(s) for simulated software features are described. Responsive to a request for accessing a first web page, first code for the first web page is caused to be retrieved from a first web application. Responsive to the first code, the first web page is caused to be displayed with an access to a simulation of a feature that may be used in the first web application. Responsive to a user's selection of the access, the first web page is caused to be updated to include a first user interface (UI) component that identifies a second web page; responsive to the updated first web page, second code for the second web page is caused to be retrieved from a second web application; and responsive to the second code, the second web page is caused to be displayed inside the first UI component to allow for the simulation.

Systems and methods are provided for parsing, at a server, a design file including code for a user interface, where the code is readable by the server into a tree representation having nodes, the nodes represent design elements of the user interface and includes one or more design properties, a unique identifier, and references to child elements. The server traverses the tree representation and comparing the design elements of the tree representation to a set of factors to determine when the design elements and meet a criteria to be a subcomponent for one or more components of the code of the design file. The server adds the design elements to a list of subcomponent candidates that meet at least one of the set of factors to be a subcomponent. The server generates a tree structure for the one or more components using the list of subcomponent candidates.

The method may further include identifying one or more performance factors associated with the web product and the one or more platforms, where the one or more performance factors are identified based one or more parameters associated with the one or more platforms to enhance performance associated with the web product when delivering the contents, and facilitating adjustments to one or more virtual dials to facilitate one or more modifications to the one or more parameters.

Performance simulation for selected platforms for web products in database systems

A system for conducting user interface (UI) software component testing has been developed. The test of the UI software component is initiated and a display of the test results are shown to a user in a browser used in the testing. A code editor used for debugging by the user receives the test results from the browser and presents the test results to the user for debugging. The browser webview and the code editor are simultaneously displayed to the user in a dual screencast window during the UI software testing.

In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating offering generic integrated development environments (IDE) extension in an on-demand services environment according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes identifying a plurality of design systems and a plurality of components associated with the plurality of design systems, where at least one component of the plurality of components is identified for each of the plurality of design systems; integrating the plurality of components into a single structure of components. The method further includes generating a set of protocols based on the single structure of components, and associating the set of protocols to one or more IDEs such that set of protocols serves as a generic IDE extension to the one or more IDEs and is compatible with the plurality of design systems.

In accordance with embodiments, there are provided mechanisms and methods for facilitating performance simulation and cost-benefit analysis for performance factors for web products in database systems according to one embodiment. In one embodiment and by way of example, a method includes analyzing statistics associated with performance of delivery of contents associated with a web product, where the contents are delivered using one or more delivery platforms and one or more device types over one or more networks, and computing costs and benefits of adjusting one or more performance factors to enhance performance of the web product based on one or more metrics associated with the delivery platforms and the one or more device types. The method may further include assigning one or more cost-benefit ratings, based on the costs and the benefits, to the one or more performance factors to indicate a cost and a benefit of adjusting each of the one or more performance factors, and facilitating, based on the one or more cost-benefit ratings, adjustments to one or more virtual setting buttons to facilitate one or more modifications to the one or more parameters.

An infrastructure management system automatically determines a configuration of infrastructure services for the execution of applications that best satisfies predefined target criteria based on receiving annotated application programming interface (API) schemas associated with the applications. The system extracts information from customized annotations in a received API schema, sets up an API gateway with an existing configuration of infrastructure services, and logs requests received at this existing configuration via the gateway. The system generates a set of alternate configurations based on the extracted information, simulates execution of a set of logged requests to determine a set of valid configurations, and subsequently selects a new configuration that satisfies threshold predefined target criteria. The system may update the existing configuration to the new configuration without interrupting application services.

Application infrastructure configuration based on annotated API schemas

An application programming interface (API) simulator generates synthetic responses for use during development and testing of subsystems. The API simulator receives an API schema including annotations that specify constraints on the synthetic responses. The API simulator generates synthetic responses as results of APIs that conform to the constraints specified using the annotations. The use of API simulator allows testing of subsystems using realistic synthetic responses that satisfy specific constraints as specified using annotations of the API schema.
