To enable sending test completion or failure emails, provide the default SMTP server and recipient settings. These settings will automatically be applied to every new test.

Note:

These settings are for the test controller machine only. If the controller machine does not specify the default Email settings, all new tests created on the controller will not have SMTP and recipient lists.

In the main menu > Edit > Settings > Email tab, provide the following:

SMTP Mail server (a)

  • Mail Server (SMTP): The name/address of your SMTP mail server
  • Server port: The SMTP server port (25 default)
  • Enable SSL: If your SMPT server requires SSL connectivity

Sender credentials (b)

  • Credentials: Your SMTP credentials
  • Sender: The sender's mail address

Report recipients (c)

  • Success & failure: A list of names and email addresses of recipients that will receive a copy of the test report upon test completion.
  • Failure: A list of names and email addresses of recipients that will receive a copy of the test report upon test completion with failure.

Option to email for non-initialized tests (d)

During continuous testing, if a test fails to initialize (for example, the test configuration file was renamed), the default recipients may receive an email.

Check the Use the default receipt lists when tests fail to initialize checkbox to email all recipients in the Success & Failure and Failure lists the test initialization error.

This notification can alter test settings to ensure proper continuous testing.
