MemBrowse tool allows embedded software developers to track the RAM and flash footprint of their firmware in continuous integration, with support for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI/CD, and other CI solutions. Engineers can monitor footprint changes in a granular way each time code is submitted to their project, instead of finding out when the firmware image stops fitting into the target’s flash, or can’t run due to excessive RAM usage. MemBrowse also provides the full history showing how memory usage progressed over time, and how much is left for extra features. MemBrowse key features: Integrates with CI/CD – It works with GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins, and other CI systems. Automatic memory tracking on every commit to your main branch. The open-source MemBrowse CLI parses the project’s ELF file and linker script, extracts memory usage data, and uploads a report to the MemBrowse Portal. PR comments show how much memory each [...]
