A method, computer program product, and computer system for testing of robotic process automation robots that interact with user interfaces. The method includes obtaining analysis of commands in a robotic process automation script to determine interaction of the commands with one or more user interface applications. The method includes extracting a list of commands that interact with user interface controls and grouping the commands by user interface application. The method then generates a set of tests for each user interface application, with the set of tests including the commands for user interface control interactions and assertions of a state of each user interface control interacted with. The method provides a set of tests for a robot for each user interface application.

A method, system, and computer program product for predicting microservices required for incoming requests for reducing the start latency of serverless microservices. The method may include obtaining tracing data of microservices of an application for historical requests processed by the application. The method may also include grouping the tracing data based on common request attributes. The method may also include aggregating each group into rules relating the common request attributes to lists of microservices. The method may also include building a predictive model formed of the rules for processing incoming requests to obtain a list of predicted microservices required for the incoming request based on attributes of the incoming request.
