Production Engineering Glossary

Production Engineering is the discipline responsible for understanding & operating how software behaves in prod, unifying what was once fragmented across SRE, support, & QA teams.

Automated regression testing verifies code changes don't break existing features. Learn how simulation-based testing catches real bugs traditional tests miss.

Predictive software quality uses AI to predict and prevent software failures before they happen, moving beyond reactive testing and monitoring. Learn how it works.

Learn the key differences between code simulation and static analysis tools, when to use each, what problems they solve, and how PlayerZero's simulations boost software quality.

Engineering teams spend 50-60% of their time debugging instead of building features. Learn proven strategies to reduce debugging time and increase engineering productivity.

Automated issue resolution uses AI to detect, diagnose, and fix software problems automatically. Learn how it works and how it differs from traditional monitoring.

Telemetry data connects runtime data to your actual codebase, bridging the gap between observability metrics and the code that generates them. Learn how it works.

Support escalations occur when customer issues require engineering involvement to resolve. Learn how to reduce escalations and empower support teams with code-aware tools.
