Patent 7984031 was granted and assigned to Microsoft on July, 2011 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
Query testing is enabled across one or more query languages utilizing an abstract representation of a query. From this abstract representation, queries associated with one or more specific query languages are generated. Further, a verification scheme can be implemented for a specific store and/or query language to facilitate generation of an expected result for comparison with an actual result of test query evaluation. Further yet, data driving and/or modeling can be leveraged to further aid query testing.
