Abstract
In some embodiments, a troubleshooting module executes on a host machine alongside an instance of a robotic process automation (RPA) robot that carries out an automation workflow. The troubleshooting module is configured to detect an automation failure and in response, to carry out a forensic investigation to determine a cause of the malfunction. Exemplary causes detected by the troubleshooter include focus theft and an inadvertent file lock. The troubleshooting module is further configured to identify a culprit (i.e., software entity causing the respective failure) and to communicate a descriptor of the culprit to a user, for instance by way of a failure notification displayed on a screen of the respective host machine or within an administration interface exposed by an RPA conductor orchestrating the execution of multiple RPA robots.
