release build issues

Recently I have seen one of our product being sent to feild in DEBUG build.I
waited for next S/W distribution date and sent across release build after
quite a bit of testing.But I have learnt lately that there are so many issues
are coming from feild , which are reporting sayiing, it crashes, are givesn
some incorrect value.At this point I cannot go back and check all the code
for complaince.Any one there who can guide me to find any (free)tool which
can run throught my code and let me know which worflows will BOMB on release
build !
Appreatite you help.Thanks in advance

CompuWare have a suite of stuff for failure testing and the like (memory
problems, leaks, etc) at
http://www.compuware.com/products/de...er/default.htm , but it isn't
cheap.

I've never found anything that's free that I've thought worthwhile - writing
this kind of software is, I would imagine, a lengthy process, and so like
most programming tools cost a lot.

It sounds like your testing isn't sound enough, and 3rd party tools aren't a
substitute for testing, more of a helper in diagnosing problems. You will,
in the end, have to look at the changes you made and/or ask your customers
to replicate the problems step by step so you can see them yourself.

Good luck!
