METHOD FOR COLLECTING OUTPUT DATA RELATED TO UPGRADING AT LEAST ONE SERVICE OF A PLURALITY OF SERVICES PERFORMED ON A TECHNICAL SYSTEM

摘要

The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for collecting output data related to upgrading at least one service of a plurality of services (203, 204, 205, 211) performed on a technical system (200), the technical system (200) comprising at least one actuator (210), wherein the plurality of services is adapted to provide an output (209) which controls the at least one actuator (210) in response to an input (202) to the system (200), wherein the computer-implemented method is adapted to deploy at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) on the system (200) while maintaining the previous version of the service (204) on the system (200), wherein the updated version of the at least one service (211) is prevented from controlling the at least one actuator (210) and deploy a test probe module (311) for testing the performance of the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) on the technical system (200), operate the test probe module (311) on the technical system (200) to test the performance of the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) on the technical system (200) with respect to predetermined criteria, determine a first performance level of the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) by checking whether the performance of the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) complies with the predetermined criteria based on input data provided by the test probe module, determine a second performance level of the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211) by applying at least one further test on the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211), and collect the output data (209) related to the at least one updated version of the at least one service (211), comprising the first performance level, the second performance level, the predetermined criteria, the input data of the test probe module and/or other data related to the method steps. Further, the invention relates to a corresponding computer program product and a corresponding technical system.
