Understanding Dashboard: A Complete Guide

PreviousOverviewNextTalking to Agents: A Comprehensive Guide for Interactions

Last updated 4 months ago

The Ratl.ai Dashboard is your central hub for managing and tracking all testing activities. It provides an intuitive interface for monitoring Functional Tests, Load Simulations, E2E Tests, and Accessibility Assessments. With interactive visuals, detailed test summaries, and toggleable categories, the dashboard ensures you have real-time insights into your testing progress.


Key Features

  1. Top-Level Summary Cards :

  • Quickly view the number of tests conducted in each category:

    • Functional Tests : Displays the total number of functional tests.

    • E2E Tests : Shows the count of end-to-end tests.

    • Load Simulations : Highlights the load simulations performed.

    • Accessibility Assessments : Indicates the accessibility tests completed.

  1. Toggleable Test Categories :

  • Navigate between the following categories using tabs:

    • Functional Test

    • Load Simulations

    • E2E Test

    • Accessibility Assessments

  • Each category offers tailored insights and detailed metrics.

  1. Graphical Test Progress :

  • The graph displays test activity over time, broken down into:

    • Collections : Red line.

    • Suites : Green line.

    • Test Cases : Yellow line.

  • Hover over points to view detailed metrics for a specific day.

  1. Detailed Test Summary Table :

  • Located below the graph, the table provides:

    • API Endpoint : The specific API being tested.

    • Suites : The associated test suite name or URL.

    • Created On : Date of test creation.

    • Created By : User who initiated the test.

    • Recent Status : Execution results (e.g., "1/13 Passed").


How to Use the Dashboard

  1. View Top-Level Metrics :

  • Use the summary cards at the top of the dashboard to quickly assess your testing progress.

  • Metrics include the total count of Functional Tests, E2E Tests, Load Simulations, and Accessibility Assessments.

  1. Toggle Between Categories :

  • Click on the tabs to switch between Functional Test , Load Simulations , E2E Test , and Accessibility Assessments .

  • Each tab updates the graph and table to display data specific to that category.

  1. Analyze Graph Trends :

  • Use the interactive graph to track the number of collections, suites, and test cases over time.

  • Identify patterns or spikes in test creation and execution.

  1. Review Test Details :

  • Scroll to the table below the graph to examine test summaries.

  • Focus on the Recent Status column to prioritize failed or incomplete tests.


Best Practices

  • Review Metrics Regularly :

    • Frequently check the dashboard to monitor testing progress and ensure everything is on track.

  • Toggle Between Categories :

    • Explore all test types to maintain a comprehensive view of your project’s reliability.

  • Address Failed Tests Immediately :

    • Use the "Recent Status" column to identify and resolve failed or unexecuted tests promptly.

  • Track Test Trends :

    • Leverage the graph to analyze daily and weekly test activity, helping you plan future testing efforts.


Example Workflow

Functional Test Tab

  1. Toggle to the Functional Test tab.

  2. Review the graph for daily test activity.

  3. Use the table to identify test suites with incomplete or failed results.

  4. Prioritize resolving failed tests before executing new ones.

Load Simulations Tab

  1. Switch to the Load Simulations tab.

  2. Analyze trends in load test creation and execution.

  3. Check resource usage metrics to ensure efficient simulation setup.

E2E Test Tab

  1. Select the E2E Test tab to focus on end-to-end workflows.

  2. Identify API combinations and test flow execution results.

Accessibility Assessments Tab

  1. Navigate to the Accessibility Assessments tab.

  2. Review generated reports for compliance insights.

  3. Address any identified accessibility issues to ensure usability.


Postconditions

After using the dashboard, you should have:

  • A clear understanding of test execution metrics across all categories.

  • Insights into failed or incomplete tests that require immediate attention.

  • Visualized trends in test activity to support planning and decision-making.

  • Access to detailed test reports and summaries for deeper analysis.
