Abstract
Disclosed is a method, a device, a system and/or a manufacture of immutable protection of software and/or computing hardware testing data. In one embodiment, a method for immutably securing testing data includes initiating an operation filesystem to operate from and copying a software application and/or computer hardware design to define a workspace data. A test script is selected and executed. The method provides input data including the testing data to a hash function. The testing data may include the result data. A hash value from the hash function is generated that is uniquely determined based on the input data. A blockchain transaction is generated that includes the hash value. The hash value is submitted to a node of a blockchain network that includes a distributed network of two or more nodes maintaining a ledger database reconciled through a consensus mechanism to immutably protect the testing data.
