Alert settings

All notification settings live on one page: open the user menu and click Notifications. The page has three parts:

  • Alert delay — how long an incident must last before you are notified.
  • Channels & integrations — the services you connect, see Notification channels.
  • Project delivery — which channels each project uses and how sensitive its alerts are.

Connecting a channel doesn't send any alerts by itself. In Project delivery, expand a project and switch on the channels it should use. Only connected channels are listed.

  • Mute all stops every alert for the project; Unmute all turns them back on.
  • Apply to all projects copies the project's channels and sensitivity to all your other projects.

You can change the same settings for a single project under Notifications in its project settings. Browser push notifications can be toggled from Project-wide settings.

Alert sensitivity decides what you are notified about, separately for each project:

  • Errors only (the default) — hard failures such as downtime, error responses or missing content.
  • Errors + warnings — also timeouts and slow responses, before they become hard errors.

Short outages that fix themselves don't need to wake anyone. Alert delay sets how long an incident must last before Testomato notifies you: any length, 5, 10 or 20 minutes. It applies to every channel and every project.
