Slack Integration

Introduction

Section titled “Introduction”

Integrating TestCLIX with Slack allows receiving instant notifications in the Slack workspace whenever any tests fail. It ensures immediate awareness of any issues, reducing response times and improving visibility.

What You Get

Section titled “What You Get”
  • Real-time alerts on the chosen Slack channel.
  • Notifications triggered for any failed test (works for all types of tests).
  • Clean channel history - notifications are only sent on failure.

Connecting to Slack

Section titled “Connecting to Slack”

The Slack integration can be connected and managed directly from the application Settings.

  1. Open Settings from the left sidebar menu.

  2. Select the Integrations tab.

  3. If Slack is not connected, a Connect to slack button is displayed. Click it to start the process.
