It's that time of year again. Trees are lit, presents are being wrapped, and relatives are coming to visit. That's right, it's time again for the 12 days of Christmas-- 2022 ITB Video Release Edition! 

Today, Day 9's Videos from Into the Box 2022 Conference, 2 sessions about debugging CFML apps and errors.

For the next 12 business days up until Christmas, we'll be releasing a series of related videos each day on the CFCasts site for our Paid and Unpaid CFCasts Subscribers, and a announcement with titles, descriptions, and links to the videos, right here on the Ortus blog. Consider it our early Christmas gift to you.

We were planning on releasing the videos on Dec 24th, but we couldn't wait any longer.

Kai Koenig - Modern ways to keep on top of crashes and errors in your applications

It doesn't matter if you're working on a website, an app or on a complex back end enterprise system. We all know that software is usually not free of bugs. Monitoring your backend systems and having error logging mechanism for them is reasonably common nowadays. Logging issues in client-side apps is usually more complicated and requires some planning and usually additional libraries, but ideally you’d be able to track and follow issues across your tech stack and be notified of critical problems.

After this session you'll have a much better understanding of the error logging and crash reporting ecosystem and will have seen common usage patterns. The session will also cover typical organisational concerns such as perceived performance overhead or cost and how to counter and debunk some of these myths by looking at the benefits of a comprehensive error logging solution.

You need to change an application that has been running for years.

It might be a ColdFusion customer portal, a Lucee application supporting internal operations, or a CFML system your team is preparing to modernize. People depend on it, but some of its behavior lives in old tickets, scattered documentation, and the memory of whoever has supported it longest.

Now a release is approaching. You know more testing would help. The difficult part is deciding where to begin without putting every other priority on hold.

Start with one important workflow and build evidence around what it needs to do.

Your ColdFusion Upgrade Passed. Did Your Business Workflows?

Your ColdFusion Upgrade Passed. Did Your Business Workflows?

The server restarted. The administrator shows the expected version. Your homepage loads, and a few familiar screens look fine.

Would you tell the business the upgrade is complete?

Consider an illustrative scenario: a customer submits an order after an upgrade. The application saves it and displays a confirmation page. But the confirmation email never arrives, and the scheduled process that sends the order to fulfillment has not completed.
