Instructions

Provide clear, step-by-step instructions for the agent to follow. For example:

or 
look around the page and open the login page

​
Success Conditions (Required)

Define the conditions that determine a successful test. You can add multiple conditions:

Running Tests

Once you’ve set up your agent, you can:
  • Run tests manually by clicking the “Run” button
  • Set up automatic test schedules (if available)

Viewing Results

After the agent runs, you can view the results in the Alerty dashboard. The report will include:
  • Summary of the test results
  • Details on whether success conditions were met
  • Performance metrics (if applicable)
  • Any detected issues or anomalies

​
Example Test Result
