AUTOMATED SOLUTION THAT DETECTS CONFIGURATION PROBLEMS IN AN ECLIPSE-BASED SOFTWARE APPLICATION
First Claim
1. An ECLIPSE framework feature configuration testing software comprising:
- a set of programmatic instructions digitally encoded in a machine readable media and executable by at least one computing device, wherein said set of programmatic instructions are configured to analyze a set of features and feature patches of an ECLIPSE-based application, to determine an existence of configuration problems if any, and to report determined configuration problems.

Abstract
The present invention discloses an automated method for detecting configuration problems in an ECLIPSE-based software application. Such a method can begin with the receipt of a user-command to test a configuration of an ECLIPSE-based software application or with a detection of a feature addition/update when an auto-testing feature is enabled. Information about the available sites for the ECLIPSE-based application can then be obtained. Then, a list of software elements required to operate the ECLIPSE-based software application can be compiled. At least one data attribute can be extracted from the meta data of each software element in the compiled list. The extracted data attributes can then be analyzed. When the analysis identifies a configuration problem, the existence of the configuration problem can be validated.
