Alerts

By default, BugBug is sending email notifications about scheduled runs to all members of your organization. This makes sure that as soon as your app is not working as it should you will get an email alert.

You can change this rule on the Alerts page:

• when people get notifications

• who will receive them

You can also send additional notifications to email addresses who are not members of your organization, for example, clients or colleagues.

Alerts are configured per project, each project has independent settings.

List of available conditions

Along with other conditions, such as:

• Which suites/tests/schedules - allows you to select various suites, tests or schedules

• Results - "Passed", and "Failed" are selected by default, but you can also select a third option - "BugBug internal error" that will send an alert when i.e. some technical issues occur on BugBug's side that could impact the test run results.

• Methods - contains "Local browser" and "Cloud" options to be selected but this is dependent on your subscription plan settings

• Profile - a profile that was used in selected runs

• Run by - define what causes the run. Select between: "Manually by a user", "API" or "Automatically by scheduler"

Remember that these fields will change based on what type of event you will select in the "When" section from the listed options.

Currently you can choose one of those options:

• Send email notification

*Note: More will come soon, such as: creating a Jira ticket and sending a notification to other team communicators like Discord, etc.
