Hi,
unfortunately error reporting doesn't seem to be one of the most compelling concerns between the major AS vendors, and yes, you are right: JBoss logging capabilities are poor and poorly documented (nonetheless you can find an acceptable balance between your deployments logging framework and making an appropriate configuration of the JBoss logging framework).
It's not getting better for other vendors (even commercial ones) from the most scrappy to the most honed . Everybody has it's own peculiar defect regarding this issue...just try to get Jetty log what you tell it to and you will know what I mean...or try to understand at a glance the (beautyful indeed) Websphere 6.1 Admin Logging Console...etc. etc.
I say: "Patience it's the virtue of the strong man". So... that the patience be with you :-)))
So long -
Happy 10th year, JCertif!

Franka Passing discusses the architectural shift of Duolingo’s 500+ backend services to Kubernetes. She explains the move toward GitOps with Argo CD, the transition to IPv6-only pods, and the "cellular architecture" used to isolate environments. She shares "reports from the trenches" on managing developer trust, navigating AWS rate limits, and productionizing early adopter services.
By Franka PassingArticle: A Better Alternative to Reducing CI Regression Test Suite Sizes
How can you focus in a sea of results from a large regression test suite? This article describes a stochastic approach that relies on some degree of redundancy in your CI regression test set. This approach does not guarantee you will catch every bug every time, but it gives you your best bet of not missing the subtle signatures of all the bugs uncovered by your CI regression test suite runs.

In this episode, Thomas Betts and Adi Polak talk about the need for context engineering when interacting with LLMs and designing agentic systems. Prompt engineering techniques work with a stateless approach, while context engineering allows AI systems to be stateful.
By Adi PolakDynamic Languages Faster and Cheaper in 13-Language Claude Code Benchmark
A 600-run benchmark by Ruby committer Yusuke Endoh tested Claude Code across 13 languages, implementing a simplified Git. Ruby, Python, and JavaScript were the fastest and cheapest, at $0.36- $0.39 per run. Statistically typed languages cost 1.4-2.6x more. Adding type checkers to dynamic languages imposed 1.6-3.2x slowdowns. Full dataset available on GitHub.
