Abstract
A system for autonomously testing a computing system is disclosed. The system parses data obtained from a variety of sources, and extracts source concepts from the parsed data to generate models for inclusion in a set of agglomerated models. The system interacts with and explores features of a software application being tested by the system. Outputs and information obtained from the interaction are utilized by the system to update the models or generate new models for the set of agglomerated models. The agglomerated models are utilized by the system to execute tests on the application to detect potential defects and conflicts. Detected defects and conflicts may be included in a report for review. Feedback on the defects and conflicts may be utilized to further update the agglomerated models. The agglomerated models are updated recursively as additional data is obtained, further interactions are performed, and further outputs are generated over time.
