Abstract
One example method includes executing a software application within the virtual machine environment; during execution of the software application, detecting a network request sent from the software application within the virtual machine environment, the network request formatted according to a particular network protocol; in response to detecting the network request: determining an expected response to the network request based on at least one of information included in the network request or the particular network protocol; and providing the expected response to the software application within the virtual machine environment.
