webapp.io Launch Week Day 3: Debug docker containers directly from your PRs
Continuing on the theme of our Pull Request Builder from yesterday's launch, we're helping teams using Docker and Docker Compose more quickly understand when things are wrong with backend components.
Usually, if an e2e test fails due to a backend problem, it takes 5-10 steps before realizing that a container has crashed.
With our Docker integration, you can see directly in the pull request whether a container has crashed and caused tests to fail.
Additionally, clicking the dashboard icon leads to a detailed view of the containers that ran within your pipeline, allowing you to easily view logs and debug problems.
Best of all, the plugin is entirely open source! We're happy to listen to our users as we improve the plugin and add additional functionality to it.
Currently, the Pull Request Builder and the Docker Plugin are only available for GitHub users, but we'll be porting them to our other supported platforms (GitLab and BitBucket) soon.
