Group tests by user journey, environment, location, service, team, or any other dimension that fits your workflow. View aggregated results, identify failing components, and understand application performance across related tests, all from a unified view. Configure suite-level alerting to receive a consolidated notification when a critical portion of your tests fail, helping you respond more efficiently to issues impacting important workflows. ## Key features +- **Impact-driven alerting**: Receive a consolidated alert when a critical portion of the test suite fails. - **Centralized visibility**: View all tests in a suite and their results in one place. - **Simplified management**: Create and run test groups instead of managing individual tests separately. - **Easier maintenance**: Identify which tests need updates when application changes are made. @@ -42,11 +42,23 @@ To create a new Test Suite: - **Search** by name or tag. - **Filter** by test type (such as Browser, API, Private Location, or Mobile). - **Select** one or more tests to include. -3.
