ABSTRACT:
A verification infrastructure uses a verification tool with a user interface with which a user may interact to verify an application and/or its platform. The user may enter the same set of commands to verify instances of the application on different platforms. Furthermore, the verification tool is data driven in a way that allows the verification tool to be easily extended to new platforms. Finally, details of a particular configuration are stored persistently and are used by the verification tool to perform verification. Thus, much of the complex work of acquiring knowledge about the configuration and applying the knowledge to the results of various checks made for verification is performed by the verification tool and not a human user.
