Improving the test environment with focus on computer cloning, hotfixing and simulation software

Sammanfattning: When restoring a test environment, the key to success is that the process is fast and automatic. The goal is to have as little user interaction as possible. This master thesis evaluates solutions for handling the restoration of the test environments and investigates a couple of possible approaches. It turns out that the most effective way of solving the problem is to elaborate a customized software. The interface and workflow of this software is described in the thesis. Testing of the new software is performed and the thesis ends with some conclusions regarding the new solution and proposals for future development.
