  • Patent number: 12417090
    Abstract: Techniques are described for providing a software-based platform used to collect and analyze data artifacts generated during software development processes and to display results of the analyses as actionable information. The software development observability platform is a software-based agent (also referred to as an “artifact collector”) capable of capturing output from a wide variety of software development tools including compilers, test frameworks, code coverage and type checker tools, and the like. The artifact collector stores the data in an event data format and forwards the data to a data intake and query system or other destination for further analysis. In some examples, the software development observability platform further includes graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and other analysis tools that enable users to obtain insights into their software development processes.
