Highlights

As code flows through your CI workflows, it is processed by plenty of different steps. Each step depends on various configuration and parts that change frequently. Even though your pipeline has a solid setup, it may slow you down while identifying the problems during you deploy to the production.

A common challenge for software organizations is ensuring that all stakeholders — developers, DevOps engineers, SREs — have across-the-board visibility into the software delivery process. The reason you need workflow analytics is to identify issues and enhance organization-wide visibilty on your workflows.

Foresight allows you to identify those in the most quick way to enable you to have better workflow operations.

Watch quick introduction to Foresight Highlights:

Organization-wide CI Analytics​

Status​

Status section helps you to keep an eye on success and failures, and track how your workflows are performing. Foresight gathers your workflow runs an groups them according to the success, failure and other status information by their dates.

Foresight uses heatmap to visualize your failure trend. Foresight groups failed runs by their execution dates and shows workflow behavior.

Status 1

You may have numerous workflows, however, the ones you should start to look is the most active ones. Foresight sorts the most active workflows by their execution configurations during the selected period, and shows the distribution of success and failure status of the runs.

Status 2

This is an estimated cost of your workflows. You can detect the most costly workflows.

After gathering your workflow run metadata, Foresight combines those information with GitHub's pricing plan.
