To enable reports, while logged in to Usetrace:

  1. Go to Settings > Scheduling & Reporting

  2. From Automatic reports click Add report and select Slack

Configuration:

Fill in the following configuration:

Send reports:

  • Always - always receive reports not depending on the results*

  • When results change - receive reports only when a trace is broken or fixed

  • Fails only - receive reports only when there are failure

*Setting reporting to Always and scheduling test runs every 10 minutes might lead to an annoying amount of reports. Use this option carefully.
