Slack & email alerts

Email

Monitors email your account address by default. Untick Email me on a monitor to stop its emails.

Create an incoming webhook in Slack

In Slack, add an Incoming Webhook for the channel you want alerts in, and copy its link (it starts with https://hooks.slack.com/services/).

Add it in TestBrick

On the Monitors page, click Alert channels. Enter the channel name (for example #qa-alerts), paste the link and click Connect.

TestBrick sends a hello message first, and saves the channel only if Slack accepts it.

Pick it on your monitors

Each monitor chooses its Slack channel under Where in its settings.

Send Breaks and recoveries to your team channel and Every run to a separate quiet channel, so real alerts don’t get buried.
