Show timezone offset for blackout times
Generally it would be nice to show timezone offsets anywhere times are shown on AlertSite, as it is incredibly hard to know what timezone monitors and alerts are relative to. Especially if you are not an admin. But specifically, it would be nice if the blackout periods for an alert showed the timezone they are set for. We had an issue where blackouts were set not realizing which timezone they would apply to since the account was set for a different one. Then the account timezone was changed, and because of the lack of an offset display we assumed the blackout period would update to reflect the new timezone offset, assuming that the display was relative. The blackout display did not change which led to wondering what timezone they actually were configured for. It would be nice to be able to see this explicitly in the UI and not have to guess.
option to customise the automatically generated step names shown under the Summary step graph.
With Java and Selenium, I'm building synthetic tests for one application. The script is then uploaded to alertsite monitor. The response graphs steps portion on the alertsite website gives the steps a generic name, such as step1 and step2. While I want to show the names of the steps as the pages that were visited. As alertsite creates them automatically, and sometime alertsite is not able to recognise the change in the URL and it is failing to provide proper monitor name. It would be great to have the ability to customise the step name.
More fine grained permissions - ability to create blackouts, but not edit monitors
Hi - We could benefit from a user role (Operator?) which could set a blackout period, but not edit or delete monitors. I think managing blackouts falls into the category of an operations role, whereas altering/deleting monitors is more of a configuration function. We currently have an issue where we would like our support group to be able to set a blackout period as part of supporting planned maintenance, but they should not be able to delete or alter the monitor itself.
Enable Selenium to be run in Python and set up framework for running tests using python on Alertsite
Given that Alertsite uses selenium 2.5.3 and i have to download an acient copy of eclipse to ensure that it is compaitble with the older version of selenium . I think the next step would be to upgrade to Selenium 3.0 and either use unittest or design your own Pyhon test framework for testing on Alertsite. Python is easy to pick up . It is also a very popular language . Thanks Douglas McGonegle
Configure Pause time duration prior to Local Retry
Local retry and Global Verify Tests are immediately scheduled following the initial failure that triggered the run in production testing. AlertSite today does not have a feature in place to pause the test for a duration of time before the next retry begins. The issue we have is when the AlertSite DejaClick script encounters a failure due to say a network blip, the retry is immediate. For some tests we would rather delay the Retry a few seconds. This would benefit the support team by not sending out alert notifications for false positives.
Alertsite Smartbear Dash Ping response time tracker
Hello, I would like to know how long it takes for normal Ping/ICMP or Netcat/CURL type protocols to respond to my website. I would like a monitor that can keep track of the speed of these and graph it like all your others. thank you for this morning meeting with Spencer 🙂 Sincerely, TonyAdd dynamic content string to end of Navigation URL in DejaClick Extension
Add dynamic content string to end of Navigation URL in DejaClick Extension. For example the browser timestamp string would be added to the end of the first event on playback. Example: Below is one of the requirement, where, timestamp (Current Timestamp) string to be added to the end of URL. GET https://example.com/content/dam/heartbeat.jpg?t={timestamp} Please add a timestamp in the query to bypass cache Check response code 200Make Dejaclick support Angular
Currently when you try and record an Angular Web page in Dejaclick it is hit or miss. Dejaclick does not interact with the Angualr Element, it just clicks and sends keys. If you want to see the issues in action go to www.delta.com and record a flight search. Then play it back. Does not work well. Selenium is better suited for manuvering through Angular Journeys.Upgrade the version of Chrome running on Selenium on Alertsite
As we have Angular web pages running version 6 and 7 that was released in 2018 they do not work on the version of Chrome that launches with Selenium on Alertsite. When you launch Chrome in alertsite it uses version 49 of Chrome which was released in 2016. Using Dejaclick Chrome launches in version 74. Suggestion. Upgrade the version of Chrome that Selenium launches in Alertsite to version 74 or greater. Thanks, Douglas McGonegle
