Maybe we can record the error info for failed task which is good for debugging and online monitoring

@lufishggg thank you for opening an issue!

Currently, asynq stores the error message from the last failure (if any) and this is shown in the WebUI.
If you need more error info (e.g. entire error history not just the last one, stack trace, etc) and for monitoring/alerting you can probably use an error reporting service (e.g. Bugsnag, Rollbar, Sentry, Airbrake, etc).
Asynq provides ErrorHandler via config so you can report all errors to a error reporting service using this hook:

func reportError(ctx context, task *asynq.Task, err error) {
     // notify error to the error reporting service
}

srv := asynq.NewServer(redisConnOpt, asynq.Config{
     ErrorHandler: asynq.ErrorHandlerFunc(reportError),
})
