A method, system, and computer program product for detecting out-of-date runbooks are disclosed. The method may include generating a defect corresponding to an alert on a running workload system. The method may further include, in response to generating the defect in the running workload system, automatically obtaining an identification of a runbook based on information of the alert, automatically accessing the runbook based on the identification of the runbook, the runbook including instructions for fixing the defect, automatically parsing the instructions to obtain executable operations, and automatically executing the executable operations on the running workload system. The method may further include, in response to detecting that the alert is not solved on the running workload system after a predefined period, automatically determining that the runbook is out-of-date, and automatically generating a runbook out-of-date signal.

Out-of-date runbook detection

Provided are systems, methods, and media for concurrency conflict testing for shared resources. An example method includes identifying shared resources that are to be accessed by an application. Generating a plurality of concurrency test scenarios based on the shared resources. Analyzing a plurality of concurrency test cases to detect which concurrency test cases include a reference to the shared resources. Executing a concurrency test scenario. Performing the following while or before the concurrency test scenario is executing, obtaining analyzed concurrency test cases associated with the concurrency test scenario which referenced the shared resources, obtaining application modules pertaining to the obtained concurrency test cases, generating concurrency application modules by adding breakpoints to the obtained application modules, executing the obtained concurrency test cases until all of the obtained concurrency test cases are latched at the breakpoints, and simultaneously resuming the execution of the obtained concurrency test cases.
