Revisions

Save and view historical snapshots of a test

A revision is a read-only snapshot of a test at a point in time. Use revisions to see what a test looked like when a particular run happened, or to understand when a change was made.

Revision Types

TypeWhen it is created
workingThe live state of the test; updated on every save
autoCreated automatically (for example, before an import)
manualCreated explicitly by a team member

Creating a Revision

  1. Open the test in the test editor.
  2. Open the ⋯ menu in the page header and choose Create Revision.
  3. Optionally enter a message describing what this revision captures.

The revision is saved immediately. All roles can create revisions.

Viewing a Revision

  1. Open the test in the test editor.
  2. Open the ⋯ menu and choose Revision History.
  3. Click any entry in the panel to open the revision view.

The revision view shows:

  • Test name and revision type badge (Working, Auto Revision, or Manual Revision)
  • Version number, if assigned
  • Message, if provided at creation time
  • Created timestamp and the user who created it
  • Configuration — the status, config, vars, and parameters values at snapshot time, as JSON
  • Steps — the full step list at snapshot time, read-only

Click Back to Test to return to the editor.
