Java Alpha

We are inviting enterprise software development teams, who develop Java software applications, to join our Alpha pre-release program.

We are working towards extending our flagship product LiveRecorder, to fully support Java application development in 2020. Our goal, is to set the bar higher by making LiveRecorder for Java the most powerful enterprise software diagnosis tool for accelerated debugging of Java applications.

Many of the features, that will make up the new LiveRecorder for Java are already in place, while some features are still missing as we are currently working on them. We need your help to iterate on those aspects before the Beta release, and to hammer out any remaining issues.

Why Get Involved?

Firstly, what’s in it for you? If you’re interested in accelerating your application development in the following areas, we can help you:

• Reduce time-to-resolution of software defects
• Make your software more reliable
• Resolve customer issues faster
• Increase CI/CD software pipeline velocity
• Reducing developer resource spent on bug fixing

It’s easy to get involved. Once you express interest, we will review your candidacy and development challenges with you. Assuming successful suitability validation will send you download instructions to get up and running.  All we ask is that you test the product and provide feedback.
