Software Testing Using a Quantum Computer System - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240020221 titled 'Software Testing Using a Quantum Computer System

Simplified Explanation

The abstract of this patent application describes a system that can receive a software test suite consisting of multiple data files. Each data file corresponds to a test of the software test suite. The system generates a mapping that assigns a qubit of a quantum computer system to each data file. It also generates a quantum assembly language (qasm) file that indicates the mapping and properties associated with each qubit. The qasm file is then sent to the quantum computer system for execution. The system can take action based on the output generated by the quantum computer system.

  • The system receives a software test suite with multiple data files.
  • Each data file represents a test of the software test suite.
  • The system generates a mapping that assigns a qubit to each data file.
  • A quantum assembly language (qasm) file is generated, indicating the mapping and qubit properties.
  • The qasm file is sent to a quantum computer system for execution.
  • The system can take action based on the output generated by the quantum computer system.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Testing software using quantum computing capabilities.
  • Optimizing software testing processes by leveraging quantum computing.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Traditional software testing methods may not be efficient or effective for certain complex systems.
  • Quantum computing can potentially provide more accurate and faster testing results.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved accuracy and efficiency in software testing.
  • Potential for discovering and resolving software bugs more effectively.
  • Utilization of quantum computing capabilities for software development and testing.


Original Abstract Submitted

in one example described herein a system can receive, by a server, a software test suite comprising a plurality of data files. each data file of the plurality of data files can correspond to a test of the software test suite. the system can generate, by the server, a mapping that assigns, for each data file, a qubit of a quantum computer system to the data file. the system can generate, by the server, a quantum assembly language (qasm) file that indicates the mapping and one or more properties associated with the qubit for each data file. the system can send, by the server, the qasm file to the quantum computer system for execution by the quantum computer system. the system can cause, by the server, an action based on an output generated by the quantum computer system.
