How we use Lightrun to Debug our Production Servers and Shift Left
Mark Zuckerberg famously quipped that Facebook works under the "Move fast and break things" motto. We can write all the unit tests in the world, have the largest QA pipeline but still bugs slither into production. That's just a fact of life which he chose to celebrate. When dealing with an incredibly complex system like we have in Codename One this can be the difference between releasing an update and doing nothing. Lightrun lets us debug remote production servers as if we were using the local IDE debugger. This gives us a level of insight into our deployment and the ability to fix issues quickly for our customers.
