In a pulse survey 2024, 41% of the respondents said that their teams are not making any strides in improving their MTTR (Mean time to repair). This indicates two things:
a. Errors reach production, causing application performance issues
b. As applications face an issue, it takes a while for teams to understand what happened and resolve the issue
Impact of Performance Issues and Poor Incident Management
Performance issues and ineffective bug discovery and resolution don’t just slow down development—they silently erode team morale, productivity, and business outcomes. According to recent industry reports, development teams lose up to 40% of productive time due to context switching and fragmented workflows. When incidents reach production without early detection, developers are forced into reactive firefighting mode, derailing sprint goals and delaying feature delivery.
Poor incident management compounds the problem. Without real-time detection, enriched error context, and streamlined triage, teams face delays in identifying root causes, miscommunication across departments, and inconsistent response protocols.
Prevent Costly App Performance Issues by Shifting Left
Auto Triage is more than just a reactive incident management tool—it’s a catalyst for shifting left in the software development lifecycle. By instantly surfacing enriched error tickets with root cause analysis, severity, and live propagation data, teams can address issues at the earliest possible stage. This proactive approach aligns with shift-left principles, where testing and quality assurance are embedded into the development process rather than deferred to later phases.
How Auto Triage Supercharges Bug Discovery and Resolution
- Instant new error detection – Root cause agent detects the error
- Automated Ticket Creation – a comprehensive ticket is instantly created with the following information
- Complete root cause analysis to pinpoint the issue
- Severity level to help prioritize response
- Exact lines of code affected
- The environment where the error occurred
- The frequency of the error, showing how often it’s been triggered
- Real-time Propagation Tracking – Smart live updates are added as error propagation occurs, so when the same issue appears in staging or prod, the ticket is updated instead of duplicated.
Auto Triage and Root Cause Agent in Conductr AI DPE
Conductr AI’s Developer Productivity Engine (DPE) has already transformed how developers discover and resolve bugs with the embedded Root Cause Agent for VS Code. With the introduction of Auto Triage, Conductr is bringing more to development workflow.
Root Cause Agent: IDE’s Diagnostic Brain
Conductr operates directly within your development environment, providing real-time insights, error tracking, and orchestration without leaving your IDE.
Auto Triage: Instant, Intelligent Bug Discovery and Resolution Response
Auto Triage introduces a new layer of automation to lessen context switching, seamless ticket ingestion, reduced noise with grouping error by root cause and faster MTTR.
This seamless integration helps developers to stay in flow while Conductr orchestrates everything behind the scenes—from detection to resolution. Auto Triage reduces manual overhead, shortens debugging cycles, and helps teams ship with confidence.
