Search Test Runs

Overview

After selecting a time frame from the dropdown menu on the top right, you can search for test runs by clicking on the Test Runs event type in the Synthetic Monitoring & Testing Results Explorer.

Search and manage your test runs in the Synthetic Monitoring & Testing Results Explorer

You can use facets to accomplish the following actions:

  • Observe the latest test runs that required retries.
  • Aggregate failed API test runs by HTTP status code and plot trends.

Explore facets

The facets panel on the left lists several facets you can use to search through your test runs. To start customizing the search query, click through the list of facets starting with Common.
