Questions about software testing:
1. How does the verification computing system determine the test threshold for software updates?
The system likely uses predefined criteria or benchmarks to determine whether an updated software version passes or fails the test.

2. What are the potential risks of not testing software updates before release?
Releasing untested software updates can lead to bugs, security vulnerabilities, and user dissatisfaction. Testing helps mitigate these risks and ensures a smoother user experience.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A verification computing system obtains from a vendor computing device software product version information that identifies a most recent version of a software product available from a software vendor. It is determined that an updated version of the first software product is available that has not been tested by the verification computing system. The verification computing system causes a generation of a first test computing environment that comprises one or more computing hosts or virtual machines. The updated version of the first software product using the first test computing environment is tested. The verification computing system generates information that indicates that the updated version of the first software product failed or passed a test threshold.
