Thank you for posting to our Community Forum.

 

Automated Regression Testing can be done well by combining Jenkins and ReadyAPI. You can use ReadyAPI to generate the reports from the testing and Jenkins to send email notifications with the reports.

 

ReadyAPI Reporting: https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/testing/reports/getting-started.html

Jenkins Email Extension: https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Email-ext+plugin

 

Regarding your second issue, you can use ReadyAPI/Jenkins to run tests against webservices on an automated schedule but it may not provide enough accuracy if these are critical services. You can take a look at our AlertSite product which will make this process much easier.

Have a great day!
