ABSTRACT:
Certain exemplary embodiments comprise a method comprising rendering a verdict indicative of whether a predetermined software system functions in a predetermined manner. The verdict can be determined based upon machine instructions. The machine instructions can be automatically generated via a module adapted to parse and/or load an Extensible Markup Language XML file indicative of a test case.
