TestRelicMonitoring Overview
An overview of TestRelic's monitoring dashboards — Smoke, Regression, and Nightly Observatory — for tracking automated quality gates and test health trends.
TestRelic's Monitoring section provides a set of specialized dashboards designed for teams that run automated quality gates as part of their CI/CD pipeline. Each dashboard is purpose-built for a different execution cadence.
Limited Beta Access
The Monitoring section is currently in limited beta. If monitoring dashboards are not visible in your navigation, contact your administrator to request access.
Monitoring dashboards
| Dashboard | Purpose | Cadence |
|---|---|---|
| Smoke Monitor | Track critical path checks that gate deployments | Per-deploy / on-demand |
| Regression Monitor | Track full regression suite health across branches | Per-commit / scheduled |
| Nightly Observatory | Deep analysis of overnight test runs with heatmaps and trend constellations | Nightly / scheduled |
Shared layout
All three monitoring dashboards share a common layout (MonitoringLayout) with:
- Tab navigation — Switch between Smoke, Regression, and Nightly views.
- Filter bar — Filter by repository, branch, environment, and date range.
- Persistent filter state — Filters are stored in
monitoringFilterStoreand persist across navigation, so your view is not reset when you switch tabs.
Filter bar
The shared filter bar at the top of the monitoring section accepts:
| Filter | Description |
|---|---|
| Repository | Limit metrics to a single repository |
| Branch | Filter by Git branch |
| Environment | Filter by deployment environment |
| Date range | Time window for the displayed data |
Filters apply across all monitoring tabs simultaneously — changing a filter while on the Smoke tab carries over when you switch to Regression or Nightly.
API
Monitoring data is fetched from the /api/v1/monitoring endpoint group via monitoringApi.ts. All dashboard KPIs, suite health, and historical metrics are server-computed and cached.
TestRelic CLI configuration
Configure the CLI's backend URL, theme, statusline, and keybindings, and learn where session cookies, tokens, and MCP config files live on disk.
Smoke Monitor
Track critical path smoke tests that gate deployments, with KPI cards, suite health rings, pipeline gate flow, and execution rhythm charts.
