Validation of data values contained in responses from server systems

Abstract:

An aspect of the present disclosure facilitates validation of responses received from server systems. In one embodiment, data values are maintained in a data source. Upon sending a request containing a query criteria to a server system, the server system retrieves data values satisfying the query criteria from the data source. A (actual) response is received from the server system, the actual response containing data values retrieved by the server system. Data values satisfying the query criteria are also retrieved directly from the data source and an expected response is constructed by incorporating the directly retrieved data values. The data values contained in the expected and the actual responses are then compared to determine a difference between the expected and actual responses as a basis for validating the actual response received from the server system for the request.
