OpenTelemetry is great at answering one question: “what just broke?” The problem is that most teams need a different answer first: “what is about to break in this release?” That is where trace-based testing comes in, especially for teams running a vendor-neutral OTel stack (Collector + Tempo/Jaeger + Prometheus) and needing deterministic release gates.

Last week, a fleet of autonomous robotaxis in China suddenly stopped working—at scale. Over a hundred vehicles stalled across a city, stranding passengers in traffic and raising immediate concerns about safety, reliability, and trust in autonomous systems. This wasn’t just a bad day for self-driving cars. It was a distributed systems failure, one that happened in the physical world, not just in dashboards.

Why did your build fail? Ask Rovo, get a clear answer, and even a way to fix it, from anywhere in Bitbucket Pipeline debugging is one of the most common and most painful parts of the development workflow. In our Atlassian research: AI adoption is rising, but friction persists, over 50% of developers reported losing more than 10 hours each week searching for information, onboarding to new code, or toggling between apps.

But plenty of those same companies are still figuring out how to get their own engineering teams to actually use AI tools day to day. When Loïc Houssier joined Superhuman as CTO in early 2025, his team was in that exact spot. The company had been shipping AI email features for years, but internal adoption of AI dev tools was still early.
