Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatuses, and software for software testing systems in computing environments are provided herein. In one example, software modules are instantiated within an enveloping framework for replaying or recording of user activity with regards to the software modules. Based at least on the enveloping framework placed in a replay mode of operation, the enveloping framework provides replayed inputs to the software modules based on previously recorded user activity, the replayed inputs each associated with unique identifiers mapping into the previously recorded user activity. The enveloping framework monitors outputs from the software modules and correlates the outputs to the inputs using the unique identifiers. Changes are detected in operation of the software modules based in part on a comparison of previously recorded outputs from the software modules to the outputs that are determined by the software modules when using the replayed inputs.
