A test interface generator accesses metadata defining a user interface display. The test interface generator generates a strongly typed application programming interface (API) for the user interface display, during compile time, based on the metadata defining the user interface display. A static type checker performs a static type check of each API during compilation of the application. A test system programmatically interacts with the user interface display through the strongly typed API.

Customizations are applied to a software product by determining whether any of the customizations to be applied are in conflict with one another. If so, product dependency information, which identifies a product that the customizations are based on, is used to reduce a number of conflicting customizations to be made to the software product. Any remaining conflicts are resolved, and the customizations are applied.
