DevOps tools for compliance monitoring

Monitoring and compliance are, in many ways, synonymous. At the very least, there’s a big overlap in terms of defining and monitoring rulesets you care about.

Introducing Android Crash Reporting with BugSplat

BugSplat users can now collect Android crashes with the Crashpad SDK. If you're supporting a cross-platform C++ application, porting a C++ application to Android, or creating a new NDK library from scratch, you can now use BugSplat to track, collect, and debug your Android crashes. This will bring the same in-depth view of crash events you get with BugSplat on other languages to your Android application.

Support for Crashpad Attachments

BugSplat now supports attachments for Crashpad out of the box. Developers can include additional files with the Crashpad crash upload using the newest release of the BugSplat Crashpad SDK. This release includes updated examples that show how to include Crashpad attachments for Windows, Linux, Android, Qt Windows, and Qt Linux (but not yet for macOS). Before this change, including attachments with Crashpad out of the box was difficult.
