Skip to main content
The Errors tab groups failed and flaky tests by error message. Use it to see which errors affected the run and how many tests each error impacts. With this view:
  • QA Engineers can quickly spot whether a single error is responsible for most failures or if you’re dealing with multiple unrelated problems.
  • Developers can jump directly to the error message and stack trace without having to click through individual test cases one by one.

Layout

The page consists of three main sections: a search bar, status filters, and an error groups table. Error groups table showing unique error messages with affected test counts Search by test name or error text. Results update as you type.

Status Filters

Filter the grouped list by outcome: All: Shows all test cases in the run, grouped by error Failed: Only failed test cases Error groups filtered to show only failed test cases Flaky: Test cases that passed on retry but had at least one failure (See: common reasons). Error groups filtered to show only flaky test cases that passed on retry Each filter displays a count: See how many test cases fall into each category. Expand / Collapse: Use the toggle on the right to expand all error groups at once or collapse them back to just the error headers.

Error Groups

Each row in the table represents a unique error message. The row shows:
  • Error text
  • Number of affected tests
Expand a row to list the tests that hit that error in the run.

Test Case Rows

Each test case row shows:
  • Status icon: A ❌ for failed, a ⚠️ for flaky.
  • Test name: The full test case title.
  • Browser: Which browser ran the test (Chromium, Firefox, Webkit, iOS, etc.).
  • Duration: How long the test took.
  • Retries: Number of retry attempts, if any.
Click any test case row to open the side panel.
