Deep Dependency Update Risk Analysis

PatchLens automates the discovery and risk assessment of behavior changes introduced by Go dependency updates. By combining static analysis, precise field-level and execution behavior inspections, PatchLens identifies hidden regressions and subtle behavior shifts. Reducing manual testing, speeding up debugging, and helping you safely integrate updates.

We also offer a licensed version of our software which can detect zero day supply chain attacks in addition to other improvements which strengthen the signal our tool can provide.

• Automatic Risk Detection: Identify direct and indirect dependency impacts instantly.
• Rapid Debugging: Pinpoint exact locations and nature of code behavior changes.
• Reduced Manual Testing: Mutation testing and comprehensive execution monitoring significantly reduce manual efforts.
• Improved Security: Proactively manage dependency vulnerabilities.
• Seamless CI Integration: Easily integrates with Dependabot, Renovate, and manual workflows.

PatchLens leverages advanced static analysis and field-level inspection techniques. For a detailed explanation of our technical methodology, visit our methodology page.

PatchLens is now available as an open-source tool. Download and run it directly from our go-update-lens repository.

For automated CI/CD integration, use our go-dep-impact-action which downloads and runs the PatchLens binary directly in your GitHub Actions workflow.
