How many errors are happening in your Web application?

If you answer "not many" you may not know enough about what is happening with your application. I love building Web applications--specifically, I build applications that deliver a great experience and quality service. In the game I play even a single error is one error to many. I am an advocate of test-driven development and I build all sorts of unit/integration tests to confirm my applications behave as expected. But, Web applications are constantly evolving and the way clients interact with our services constantly changing. Errors happen. They just happen. Sometimes it's a hardware failure and sometimes it is a bug in your code. I've been searching for a way to easily parse logs to pluck the relevant data. I've looked at logging products and definitely see their value; but, none solved my problem the way I required.

Introducing Hoth: ColdFusion Error Tracking and Reporting: http://aarongreenlee.com/share/hoth-coldfusion-errors-tracking-reporting/

 Hoth is a lightweight, framework agnostic solution to understanding the answers to two important questions without wading through log files:

 

  • Is this a new, unique error I have not seen before?
  • How many times has this error occurred?

 

Who should come? 
Anyone interested in tracking errors in their ColdFusion application, or, interested in learning the concept behind Hoth to port to their language of choice.
