Managing Projects

Overview

Ongoing project management keeps your testing workspace accurate, secure, and easy to operate as APIs and teams evolve.

Monitor the project dashboard

The project dashboard provides comprehensive visibility:

• Key metrics: total tests, pass/fail trends, recent executions, and reliability signals.
• Quick actions: run tests, create/edit tests, open configuration, and manage access.
• Activity feed: changes to settings, test activity, and system events (useful for audits).

Update project configuration

Modify project settings as requirements evolve:

• Metadata: name/description, tags, and ownership.
• Defaults: timeouts, retries, and execution parameters.
• Notifications and integrations: email/Slack/webhooks, CI/CD wiring, and reporting destinations.

Manage the project lifecycle

Manage projects through their entire lifecycle:

• Active: regular runs, stable test data, and coverage growth.
• Maintenance: clean obsolete tests, tighten assertions, and keep configurations current.
• Transition: handoff to new owners, reassign access, and document assumptions.

Archive or delete safely

Properly handle projects that are no longer active:

• Archive when you want history preserved (read-only) but no longer need it in the active list.
• Delete only when you are sure the project is obsolete and backups exist—deletion is typically irreversible.
