International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715762

Abstract:

One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for analyzing a user interface. In particular, user interface (UI) elements within the user interface may be analyzed to detect potential issues, such as visual layout issues, functionality issues, and/or other issues with the user interface. In one example, property data of a UI element may be determined. For example, coordinates of the UI element, a string within the UI element, a translation of the string, dimensional units of the UI element, and/or a wide variety of other property data may be determined. The property data may be correlated together (e.g., analyzed) to determine a recommendation. For example, a string size of a string may be compared with a UI size of a UI element to determine whether the string visually fits within the UI element without truncation. In this way, the recommendation may identify issues and/or solutions to such issues.

Assignee:

MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707687, 707758, 707E17005

Abstract:

Various embodiments provide techniques for analyzing the marketization of products. In at least some embodiments, a marketized version of a product (e.g., a software application) is associated with a configuration file that indicates actual product element settings for the marketized version. According to some embodiments, techniques are provided for determining if the product element settings (e.g., expected behaviors) indicated in the configuration file match product element settings in a specification for the product and/or vice-versa. In at least some embodiments, techniques are provided for generating a specification file from a configuration file for a marketized version of a product. For example, product elements and product element settings can be selected from the configuration file and used to generate the specification file. The specification file can then be used to validate the product and/or other versions of the product, e.g., subsequent builds and/or marketizations of the product.

International Classification:

G06N 5/02
G06F 17/28

US Classification:

706 47, 704 2

Abstract:

Various embodiments provide techniques for analyzing resources based on a set of rules to determine problems that may occur during a product (e.g., a software product) development cycle. In accordance with some embodiments, resources can include files, strings, images, text, user interface elements (e.g. controls, radio buttons, and/or windows), and so on. In at least some embodiments, a resource analysis utility (“RAU”) is provided that can load resource files and analyze associated resources according to a set of rules. According to some embodiments, the RAU includes a graphical user interface (“GUI”) that enables resource files to be selected and rules to be selected that are to be used to analyze the resource files. The GUI can also include results of the analysis of the resource files.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02
G06Q 20/20

Abstract:

Systems and methods for providing analytics data to payment facilitators and sub-merchants via a dynamic dashboard. Methods comprise receiving a request for analytics data associated with transaction data received at a point of sale terminal operated by a sub-merchant of the payment facilitator; querying, a transaction database of the acquirer processor computing system for the analytics data responsive to the request; transmitting the analytics data from the acquirer processor computing system to the payment facilitator computing system if the request for analytics data originates from the payment facilitator; transmitting the analytics data from the acquirer processor computing system to a sub-merchant computing system if the request for analytics data originates from the sub-merchant of the payment facilitator; and generating an electronic dashboard presenting the queried analytics data responsive to the request, for display on a screen of the payment facilitator computing system or the sub-merchant computing system.
