At the end of November, we’ll be migrating the Sematext Logs backend from Elasticsearch to OpenSearch

Run synthetic monitors from your CI/CD pipeline

November 16, 2020

Sematext Synthetics lets you proactively test your APIs, websites, and user journeys. In addition to scheduled monitor runs, now you can run the monitors as part of your CI/CD pipeline. To do that simply trigger monitor runs via the new Run Monitor API. With run monitor API you can:

  • Test the APIs, websites, and user journeys in your PR and staging environments and annotate the pull requests with the results.
  • Test the APIs, websites, and user journeys in production immediately after deployment and alert when deployments fail.
  • Track and catch major changes in performance metrics like page load time, page size, request count, 3rd Party API performance, etc. introduced as part of code changes.
  • Integrate synthetic monitoring with your CI/CD tools like Jenkins, TravisCI, GitHub Actions, BitBucket Pipelines, GitLab Pipelines, Netlify and Vercel. Each of these CI/CD integrations is in the docs.
