Here’s what we’ve been up to lately:
Product Updates 💻
New to all AppMap Agents: Performance Data and Easy Sharing!
One of the fastest ways to tackle bugs is to first be able to replicate them in your local environment. Now you can compare AppMap performance data to a reported bug to quickly verify that you can identify and replicate the issue. After identifying the root cause and making your fix, AppMap’s before-and-after performance data helps you confirm that you’ve resolved the performance issue, AND these data can now also be easily shared across teams! Read more about these new capabilities here and here.
AppMap Now Integrates with GitLab
If you’re working on an app with a code repository in GitLab, now you can attach before-and-after AppMap data to your merge requests to help your teammates and code reviewers quickly understand code changes and their impact on the larger codebase. You can also now upload and share your AppMaps by signing in with your GitLab login to the AppMap server, a cloud repository and interactive viewer for AppMaps. Check out this quick demo to learn more!
