What's in BlackBox?

Dev build distro, local S3 caching for builds, and pre-signed URL security. Crash handling, folding, and video recording. Symbol server, and de-symbolification, UTrace-based performance analytics, MetaData-based automated testing, Google-Azure-Okta SSO, Jira-Email-Slack integration.

Dev-Team Build Distribution

Using BlackBox Hub you can auto download and deploy builds for all major platforms. Subscribe to channels, drag & drop Unreal build folders for build upload, and get alert and update notifications. BlackBox Hub can power a local office infra disk cache, dramatically speeding up your S3-based distro and saving a massive amount of download data transfer.

Crash Reporting

Crash folding, data visualization, and crash analytics. Target different game versions, builds, platforms, and changelists. Collect hardware and user info, logs, modules loaded lists, and search all using SQL-like search from the Web Portal.

Utrace Performance Metrics

Use both basic profiling at the flick of a switch, and deep UTrace-based profiling using MetaData. All stored in our cloud backend, with the ability to compare sessions on our Web Portal, and download your entire crash data for your Business Intelligence software of choice.

Automated Testing Support

Output your MetaData-driven automated testing, sort by errors, warnings, and notes. Build the entire system into your Jenkins workflow and automated test system. We can advise on best practice for integrating with Perforce and Swarm reviews.

Crash Videos

Automated crash video recording using a super-lightweight, Unreal SDK with no additional code.
