Multiple Channels

To send notifications to multiple channels:

  2. Use Slack workflows to forward to other channels
  3. Or create multiple projects for different notification needs

Currently, each project can connect to one Slack channel. Use Slack's built-in forwarding for multi-channel notifications.

Best Practices

Dedicated Testing Channel

Create a #qa-testing or #bug0-alerts channel:

  • Keeps notifications organized
  • Reduces noise in general channels
  • Easy to monitor test health

Failures Only for High-Volume

If you run tests frequently, use "Failures only":

  • Reduces notification fatigue
  • Important failures stand out
  • Success is the expected state

Include Relevant Team Members

Add the right people to the notification channel:

  • QA engineers
  • Developers on call
  • Product managers (optional)

Troubleshooting

Not Receiving Notifications

  1. Verify Slack is connected
  2. Check notification preferences
  3. Verify channel still exists
  4. Check you're in the channel

Wrong Channel

  1. Go to integration settings
  2. Select correct channel
  3. Save changes

Bot Not in Channel

If you see "Bug0 bot is not in this channel":

  1. Invite the Bug0 bot to the channel
  2. Type /invite @Bug0 in the channel
  3. Retry the integration

Rate Limiting

If tests run very frequently, Slack may rate limit:

  • Reduce test frequency
  • Use "Failures only" notifications
  • Contact support for high-volume needs
