ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and an accompanying method for automatically assessing a communicative capability of two communications programs. In particular, two pre-exiting communications programs are compared, errors in each program that inhibit communication between the programs are then determined and resolved. To accomplish this, computer code contained in one communications program is compared to that contained in the other communications program. Determining and resolving such errors ensures that the computer code contained in one communications program is responsive to computer code contained in the other communications program and vice versa. Furthermore, if only one pre-existing communications program is available, this method and apparatus generates a second communications program from the is pre-existing communications program. Consequently, the pre-existing program is fully conversant with the second communications program.
