Automating quality assurance for standardized content sharing
View Patent ↗Automating quality assurance (QA) for standardized content sharing is disclosed. A system includes a shared content receiver, a rule retriever, an augmenting data checker, and a verification transmitter. The shared content receiver is configured to receive shared content and receive, from a source of the shared content, augmenting data that describes one or more characteristics of the shared content in a pre-determined format. The rule retriever is configured to retrieve rules associated with serving the shared content. The augmenting data checker is configured to determine if the augmenting data is compliant according to the retrieved rules. The verification transmitter is configured to transmit an indication of whether the augmenting data is compliant.
1. A system for automating quality assurance (QA) for standardized content sharing, comprising:
a shared content receiver configured to:
receive shared content; and
receive, from a source of the shared content, augmenting data that describes one or more characteristics of the shared content in a pre-determined format;
a rule retriever configured to retrieve rules associated with serving the shared content;
an augmenting data checker configured to determine if the augmenting data is compliant according to the retrieved rules; and
a verification transmitter configured to transmit an indication of whether the augmenting data is compliant.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the augmenting data checker determines if the augmenting data is compliant by verifying a subject matter of the shared content.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the augmenting data checker determines if the augmenting data is compliant by determining a latency associated with the augmenting data.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the augmenting data checker determines if the augmenting data is compliant by determining whether sites and services redirected to by the shared content are authorized.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the augmenting data checker determines if the augmenting data is compliant by determining whether a predetermined set of formats are supported.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the retrieved rules are associated with the source of the shared content.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the indication is communicated to the source of the shared content if the augmenting data checker determines the augmenting data is not compliant, and is communicated to an online shared content network if the augmenting data is compliant.
8. A method for automating quality assurance (QA) for standardized content sharing, comprising:
receiving shared content;
receiving, from a source of the shared content, augmenting data that describes one or more characteristics of the shared content in a pre-determined format;
retrieving rules associated with serving the shared content;
determining whether the augmenting data is compliant according to the retrieved rules; and
transmitting an indication of whether the augmenting data is compliant.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises verifying a subject matter of the shared content.
10. The method of claim 8 , wherein determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining a latency associated with the augmenting data.
11. The method of claim 8 , determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining whether sites and services redirected to by the shared content are authorized.
12. The method of claim 8 , wherein determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining whether a predetermined set of formats are supported.
13. The method of claim 8 , wherein the retrieved rules are associated with the source of the shared content.
14. The method of claim 8 , wherein the indication is communicated to the source of the shared content if the augmenting data is determined to not be compliant, and is communicated to an online shared content network if the augmenting data is determined to be compliant.
15. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing executable computer program instructions for automating quality assurance (QA) for standardized content sharing, the instructions executable to perform steps comprising:
receiving shared content;
receiving, from a source of the shared content, augmenting data that describes one or more characteristics of the shared content in a pre-determined format;
retrieving rules associated with serving the shared content;
determining whether the augmenting data is compliant according to the retrieved rules; and
transmitting an indication of whether the augmenting data is compliant.
16. The computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining a latency associated with the augmenting data.
17. The computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining whether sites and services redirected to by the shared content are authorized.
18. The computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein determining if the augmenting data is compliant comprises determining whether a predetermined set of formats are supported.
19. The computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the retrieved rules are associated with the source of the shared content.
20. The computer readable storage medium of claim 15 , wherein the indication is communicated to the source of the shared content if the augmenting data is determined to not be compliant, and is communicated to an online shared content network if the augmenting data is determined to be compliant.
