Findings are observations that IronBee’s analysis identified in a project’s sessions. Examples:
  • a file with a high fix-cycle rate
  • a pattern of retries
  • a habit worth changing
Each finding is grounded in actual session data. Findings aren’t necessarily bugs; they describe how the work is going. Findings are tracked per project. Every daily analysis replaces the project’s findings, and the list shows the active ones.

Open a project’s findings

Open Findings in the sidebar and pick a project. You can also click a findings count on a project card, or follow a finding from a recommendation’s causal chain. The Findings page for a project: severity counts, the severity and area filters, title search and the findings table The Findings page for a project: severity counts, the severity and area filters, title search and the findings table
The findings page covers observations across sessions. The problems a single verification run found are its Issues, on its verification detail page.

Severity

Only Concern and Critical findings can have recommendations attached.

Areas


Counts

Four tiles at the top count the project’s active findings: Critical, Concern, Information and Total Findings.
  • Filter by severity (All severities) and by area (All areas).
  • Search title… matches finding titles from 3 characters.
  • Clear filters resets them.
When you arrive from a link to one finding or one analysis, a Finding or Analysis chip pins the list to it. Remove the chip to see every finding.

The findings table

Every column sorts. The newest findings come first. Show 20, 50 or 100 rows per page.
