Using NeetoPlaydash, you can get the test results directly in your Slack workspace after run completion. To connect a project with your Slack workspace:

  8. Add trigger events: The next step is an optional one. In this step, you can configure the events that trigger the Slack messages. These events include the branch name pattern and the tag pattern. Notifications will only be triggered for runs matching the configured patterns. The inputs support both plain string and regular expressions for additional flexibility.

    This means that a branch pattern prod will match the branch names:

    • prod

    • production

    • new-prod

    • prod1

    You can provide a pattern for the git branch name as well as for the tags for the Playwright runs.

    You can also test the patterns you provided against some known values of branch names and tags by clicking on the Test your Pattern buttons on the respective fields.

    Once the patterns have been entered click on the Continue button to move to the next step.

  9. Configure template: Add the template for the Slack message you would like to see on the page. A set of predefined dynamic variables is available for you to customize the Slack message according to your needs. A live preview of how the final Slack message would look will be seen on the right-hand side of the page. Once you're satisfied with how the message looks, click on the continue button to move to the next step.
