🟠 Percepio Detect

Collaborate Across Development and Testing

Percepio Detect is designed as a team solution. A shared server and web-based dashboard allow development and testing teams to collect, review and share information about detected stability risks and runtime anomalies.

Detect can also be integrated into continuous integration and continuous testing workflows, allowing runtime monitoring and detected alerts to become part of regular automated testing.

Integrated Tracealyzer support provides system traces for detected issues without requiring continuous high-bandwidth trace streaming to the host. Detect runs independently on the target and can monitor system stability over extended periods, including field testing.

For fault conditions such as hard fault exceptions, Detect can also provide core dumps with call-stack information for subsequent investigation.

Together, Detect and Tracealyzer provide complementary levels of runtime insight:

Detect recognizes and captures the event.
Tracealyzer helps developers understand what happened.

Monitor System Behavior Over Extended Periods

Detect enables systematic monitoring of software timing and resource usage over extended periods without requiring continuous high-bandwidth trace streaming.

Performance metrics are monitored directly on the target and can trigger alerts when defined warning levels are exceeded. This allows testing to continue for hours, days or even weeks while Detect watches for stability risks and unusual runtime behavior.

Alerts can be stored on the device and retained across crashes and restarts, helping preserve valuable diagnostic information about intermittent problems.

Detect monitoring can also be incorporated into regular integration and continuous testing, allowing multithreading risks, timing anomalies and other stability issues to be identified earlier in the development process.
