Manage test results

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

Star the test run, marking it for comparison and quick access.
Make notes on the test run, preserving contextual details.
Export it to another format, so you can query it with the program of your choice.
Delete the test run, de-cluttering your UI.

To do any of these actions, use the three-dot icon to open the Test Run menu.

Star a test run

Star a test run to mark it for comparison and find it quickly in the Compare with dropdown. For more information about comparing runs, refer to Compare tests.

To star a test run, follow these steps:

Open the test run page you want to star.
Click the star icon next to the test run name.

Alternatively, use the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your test run and select Add to starred.

Starring a test run marks it for comparison. It doesn’t change how long the run’s data is retained. Starred and non-starred test runs follow the same data retention policy as your Grafana Cloud Metrics data.

Unstar a test run

To unstar a test run, follow these steps:

Open the test run page you want to unstar.
Click the star icon next to the test run name.

Alternatively, use the three-dot icon in the top-right corner of your test run and select Remove from starred.

View starred test runs

Starred test runs appear at the top of the Compare with dropdown on the test run page, grouped under Starred. For more information, refer to Compare tests.

Create a note

To create a note, follow these steps:

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

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