  • Publication number: 20240143492
    Abstract: A system that includes a failed test detector and a task updater can automatically update tasks associated with consistent failures of software tests in a software development management platform. The failed test detector can use a set of evidence of test (EOT) files that indicate software testing results over a period of time to identify tests that are consistently failing when executed against versions of a software application. The task updater can automatically create tasks associated with such consistently-failing tests in the software development management platform. The task updater can also automatically close existing tasks associated with tests, in the software development management system, if the failed test detector determines that those tests are no longer failing consistently.

  • Publication number: 20240064163
    Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods are directed to risk-based observability of a platform. Data is received from plural devices from one or more computing environments on a network. The received data is in a raw data format according to the computing environment or platform from which it was received. The received data is converted from the raw format to a structured format. The converted data is enhanced by adding contextual information associated with a corresponding one of the plural devices. A risk analysis is performed on the enhanced data based on one or more risk detection rules applied to the network. One or more tags are applied to the enhanced data based on results of the risk analysis. Data analysis is performed on the enhanced data to identify devices from aggregate sources. The data is sent to one or more destinations on the network based on the applied tags.
