Abstract

A system and method for heuristically optimizing a large set of automated test sets is presented. An automation control engine is used as a front end to a system automation engine. The automation control engine provides a set of input parameters, such as a buffer size and queue size, to the system automation engine. The system automation engine uses the input parameters along with a set of test sequences, to test a system under test. The system automation engine receives output variables from the system under test based upon the test, and sends the output variables to automation control engine. The automation control engine adjusts the input parameter values until the output variables meet one or more performance goals.
