# Manage projects

Use Projects to organize k6 tests in collections and grant access to these collections. Some ways to stay organized with Projects include the following:

- **Per team.** Each team is given their own project for them to do their work and collaborate.
- **Per component.** A project is created for each component or service you’re testing.
- **Per brand.** E-commerce customers may want to use projects per brand to stay organized.
- **Per customer.** When dealing with custom software, you can to organize by customer to ensure each unique system is tested.
- **Per major release.** After your systems go through a major change, you can to create a new project to organize the most recent data.

> To invite users to a project, refer to [Manage user or team project access](/docs/grafana-cloud/testing/k6/projects-and-users/configure-rbac/manage-roles-and-permissions/#manage-user-or-team-project-access).

## Project activity

The *Project activity* helps you get a brief overview of what’s happening in your projects.

To view the Project activity, go to **Performance testing > Projects**. Each project card will display the following stats for the past 30 days:

| Field               | Description                                      |
|---------------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| **Test created**    | Total count of tests created.                    |
| **Tests started**   | Total count of test runs started.                |
| **Success rate**    | Percentage of successful test runs.              |
| **Most recent run** | Link to the most recent test run in the project. |

## Project overview

When you select a project from the **Projects** page, you can see an overview of all the tests in that project. Each test is comprised of individual *test runs* represented by bars in a chart. The bar length represents the values reported by the trending metric, and the color represents the test status.

### Project ID

Each project has a unique identifier. You can view the project ID in the project overview page, under the project name.

The project ID can be used to:

- Run tests from the CLI in a [specific project](/docs/grafana-cloud/testing/k6/author-run/use-the-cli/#run-a-cli-test-in-a-specific-project).
- Interact with projects using the Grafana Cloud k6 API. For example, [moving a test to a different project](/docs/grafana-cloud/testing/k6/reference/cloud-rest-api/load-tests/#move-a-test-to-another-project).

### Group tests together

k6 groups *test runs* according to the test name. The name of the test is determined by one of the following:

- The test name in the [Test Builder](../../author-run/test-builder/)
- The test script filename
- The value of the `options.cloud.name` property in the test script (this overrides the filename).

### Test run status

The color of the bar for a test run indicates its status:

- Green indicates the test finished with no failed thresholds.
- Yellow indicates that the test was interrupted.
- Red indicates that the test failed one or more thresholds.

For details of all test statuses, refer to [Cloud test status codes](../../reference/cloud-test-status-codes/).
