Notifications
Settings → Notifications (under Personal) controls how TestVibe tells you about test runs, generations, load tests, and other activity — through the in-app header bell, browser alerts, and outbound channels like email, Slack, Google Chat, and Microsoft Teams.

Channels
Each channel decides where notifications are delivered and, per category, whether you get All, Failures only, or Off.
| Channel | Delivers to | Categories |
|---|---|---|
| In-app & browser | The header bell, plus opt-in OS/browser alerts | Test runs, Generations, Load tests, Runner questions, Invites & members, Billing & credits, Automations |
| Your account email (or a custom address) | Test runs, Generations, Load tests | |
| Slack / Google Chat / Microsoft Teams | An incoming-webhook URL you paste | Test runs, Generations, Load tests |
The In-app & browser and default Email channels are always present and cannot be removed (you can turn categories off). Added channels start at Failures only. Use Send test to verify a webhook, and the Browser alerts toggle to opt into OS notifications (these fire only when the TestVibe tab is in the background).
Mattermost (project-scoped)
Mattermost works differently from the per-user channels above: it's configured once per project, not per person, so the whole team shares one channel. Set a MATTERMOST_WEBHOOK_URL project secret (a self-hosted Mattermost incoming-webhook URL) from the project's env/secrets panel, and TestVibe posts a summary there whenever a run, generation, or load test finishes. An optional MATTERMOST_NOTIFY variable controls which outcomes post — all (default) or failures; set it to off to disable posting without removing the webhook. See Add API keys and secrets.
The header bell
The bell in the header shows an unread count and a dropdown feed of recent activity, with a live In progress section listing runs, load tests, and generations happening right now. Click an item to jump to its run, generation, or load-test details.
