Manage test results

After you analyze your test, you might want to mark it for further analysis. To do this, you have a few options:

  • Save the test result, keeping it beyond normal data retention periods.
  • Make notes on the test result, preserving contextual details.
  • Export it to another format, so you can query it with the program of your choice.
  • Delete the test result, de-cluttering your UI.

To do any of these actions, use the vertical-dots icon to open the Test Result menu.

Save a test result

Besides saving a test result as a baseline, you can also save a test result to persist its data.

Note

Your Grafana Cloud subscription determines the number of test results you can save.

To save a test run, follow these steps:

  1. Use the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your test run.
  2. Select Save test result.

After you save a test, your test will be added to one of the available slots.

Remove a saved test result

If you need to open up a slot to save a new test result, you can remove an old test by selecting Remove safe status.

You can also remove a test by following these steps:

  1. Open the side menu, head to Manage > Saved tests.
  2. Select the trash icon next to the test result you would like to delete.
  3. Select Remove safe status.

Unlike setting a baseline, saved tests can have more than one test run.

View saved test results

To view your saved test results, head to Manage > Saved tests.

Create a note

To create a note, follow these steps:

  1. Use the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your test run.
  2. Select Create note.

The Create Note option launches a modal window with a text box. You can then write comments about the test, mark changes, or add any context worth noting.

Delete test results

Warning

Test deletion is irreversible.

To delete a test run, follow these steps:

  1. Use the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your test run.
  2. Select Delete test run.
  3. Select Delete test run on the dialog box to confirm.
