Stack Trace Analyzer Investigation

Analyze stack traces and error messages to pinpoint the root cause of failures.

Investigation Checklist

Exception Chain Analysis

• Identify the root cause exception in nested/chained exceptions
• Check for swallowed exceptions that hide the real failure
• Verify exception types match the actual error condition
• Trace cause-effect relationships through exception wrappers
• Look for generic catch blocks that obscure specific errors

Error Propagation

• Map the full propagation path from origin to surface
• Check if error context is preserved through rethrows
• Identify where error information is lost or transformed
• Verify error codes and messages remain consistent across layers
• Detect silent failures that produce misleading downstream errors
