Abstract
A system, method, and computer program product for testing a software component by simulating an interface to a computing component using pseudo-randomized responses to service requests. For example, the method may include receiving a service request from a software component to be tested. Responsive to receiving the service request from the software component, the method accesses a data store of service requests and responses thereto. The method determines that a matching service request is stored in the accessed data, a matching service request being a service request that matches the service request received from the software component. The method identifies a plurality of associated responses that are stored in the accessed data store, each which is stored in association with the matching service request. The method pseudo-randomly selects one of the plurality of associated responses, and sends the pseudo-randomly selected associated response to the software component for processing.
