Settings

Project Settings

Central place to configure a project: identity, usage limits, API key management, third-party integrations, and environment-to-branch mapping.

Update project metadata, track monthly execution quota, issue and rotate API keys, connect Integrations, and map branches to environments.

General

Basic settings

Define the project identity and context shown across the product.

  • Project ID. Read-only identifier used by our platform or support.

  • Project Name. Display name in headers and menus.

  • Description. Short note to describe scope or ownership.

API Keys

api keys

Create and manage credentials for local or CI pipelines and tools that send data to TestDino.

Create a Key

  1. Select Generate Key.

  2. Enter a Key Name and Expiration (days), 1 to 365.

  3. Create the key and store the secret in your secret manager.

Manage Keys

  • Copy or view details. Use row actions to retrieve metadata as allowed.

  • Rotate. Create a replacement key, update CI, then revoke the old key.

  • Revoke or delete. Immediately invalidates the key.

Prefer short expirations for CI and Rotate if exposure is suspected.

Integrations

A central place to connect CI/CD, communication, and issue tracking. For installation, permissions, and workflows, see Integrations.

1. CI/CD

CI/CD

Github - Test-run summaries on commits and PRs.

2. Issue Tracking

Issue Tracking

To create issues from failed or flaky tests, use:

3. Communication

Communication
  • Slack Webhook - posts a test run summary to the Slack channel.

  • Slack App - posts a test run summary to the Slack channel mapped to the run’s branch environment.

If no environment mapping matches, TestDino posts the summary to the default Slack channel.

Remember: Map each branch pattern to an environment and select a Slack channel for that environment; environment mapping takes precedence over the default channel. This applies to GitHub as well.

Typical Actions

  • Connect the integration using OAuth, then grant the required scopes.

  • Configure targets, such as the default project, team, or channel, and map by environment or branch where supported.

  • For GitHub: Enable bot comments on pull requests and commits, and choose the branches or environments that should receive summaries.

  • For Slack App: Set a default channel, map environments or branch patterns to channels, refresh the channel list, and send a test message.

Branch Mapping

It connects branches to environments like production or staging, using exact names or patterns, so your results show up in the right place across the platform.

Mapping uses either exact branch names or wildcard patterns to group many branches under one environment.

branch mapping

Why Does It Matter?

End-to-end tests often run on pull requests and short-lived branches. Without mapping, those runs fragment across dozens of branch names.

Mapping rolls them up to the right environment, so pass rates, volumes, and alerts reflect reality.

Add or Edit an Environment

  1. Enter Name and a short Label used in chips and filters.
  2. Optionally set a Description and color.
  3. Define Branch patterns:
    • Exact match to bind a single branch, for example, main.
    • Pattern match to bind many branches, for example, feature/*, release/*, hotfix/*.
    • See the Environment Mapping guide for detailed examples and pattern tips.
  4. Save. Changes can take up to 2 minutes to apply.
  • Environments and branches: A development or staging environment typically encompasses multiple branches, for example, feature/123 or user/td-123. Production typically maps to one protected branch, such as, main or master. Teams that run tests on PRs opened or merged will execute on the PR’s head branch. Mapping ensures those runs are attributed to the correct environment.
  • Keep labels short, for example, PROD, STAGE, DEV.
  • Review patterns when you add long-lived branches.
  • Limit: up to 10 environments per project.

Danger Zone

Project Deletion

Before requesting deletion, revoke API keys, disconnect webhooks, and export any required reports.
