Abstract

Systems and methods for automatically reducing regression for a software payload applied to a plurality of computing platforms by a software updater. One example method includes receiving a health request associated with the payload, and retrieving, from an escalation engine, a plurality of identifiers identifying a subset of the plurality of computing platforms that have completed deployment of the payload, and determining a plurality of ULS tags associated with the payload. The method includes querying an anomaly detector for failure data, including pre and post-deployment data, for the subset corresponding to the ULS tags, detecting a potential software regression associated with the payload by comparing the pre and post-deployment data, and querying a root cause analyzer based on the potential regression. The method includes receiving an identifier identifying a potential root cause for the potential regression, and transmitting an event based on the potential regression and the potential root cause.
