SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps users identify random crashes and intermittent bugs in Unreal Engine projects by running automated stress tests and recording gameplay sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

Record Gameplay: Capture user sessions for later analysis.
Automated Stress Testing: Replay recordings multiple times to uncover stability issues.
Crash Detection: Identifies and reports crashes during stress tests.
Use Case: A QA engineer can use this skill to automate the process of finding rare crashes that occur during normal gameplay by running a recorded session hundreds of times overnight.

Quick Start

Run the stress test using the batch script with a specified recording session.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate stress tests to find random crashes in an Unreal Engine project?▼

Automating stress tests for Unreal Engine projects involves replaying recorded gameplay sessions multiple times to uncover random crashes and intermittent bugs. This process uses the SipherStressTest plugin to identify and report stability issues.

Can I use gameplay recording to detect intermittent bugs in Unreal Engine?▼

Yes, gameplay recording captures user sessions for later analysis. By replaying these recordings through automated stress tests, you can expose intermittent bugs and random crashes that occur during normal gameplay.

Do I need a specific plugin to run automated stress tests for crash detection?▼

Yes, running these automated stress tests requires the SipherStressTest plugin. You also need a compiled Unreal Engine project and Unreal Engine registered in the Windows Registry to execute the replay iterations.

What is the best way to find rare crashes that only happen during normal gameplay?▼

The best way to find rare crashes is to record a normal gameplay session and run an automated stress test that replays it hundreds of times. This automated replay iteration uncovers elusive stability issues efficiently.

How do I start running a stress test using a recorded gameplay session?▼

You can start a stress test by running the provided batch script with a specified recording session. This automates the replay execution to detect crashes within your compiled Unreal Engine project.
