Abstract
There is provided in an embodiment of the present invention a method wherein a processor may receive a test configuration deployment plan (TCDP) template. A user may select the test configuration deployment plan template and provide time schedule, and specific software application names and version numbers as settings for variables within the test configuration deployment plan template, in effect making a subscription request, wherein the processor receives or otherwise prompts to receive such information. Provided such resources are available at the requested time, the processor may wait until that time and provision the test configuration deployment plan to a data center resource. Test cases are run and results are collected until time or test cases are exhausted. The processor may then release resources that had been allocated to the subscription, which may include a step of undeploying or unprovisioning.
