Azure DevOps Services | Azure DevOps Server 2022 - Azure DevOps Server 2019

Teams track their test collateral health to ensure effective continuous testing in a pipeline. For example, teams might track:

  • Test pass percentage
  • Test failures
  • Test duration

With the Test Results Trend widget, you can monitor test trends over a period of time, detect patterns around test failures, test duration, and more, and generate actionable insights.

In this article you'll learn:

  • The type of insights you can get by monitoring Test Results Trend charts
  • Prerequisites for gaining actionable insights from the Test Results Trend charts
  • How to install and configure the Test Results Trend widget

Note

The Test Results Trend (Advanced) widget is based on Analytics and supported for Azure DevOps Server 2020 and later versions. For earlier versions, you can use the Test Results Trend widget.

Insights supported with Test Results Trend charts

With the Test Results Trend charts, you can gain the following insights:

  • Identify if test health is improving over time by monitoring trends of failures and average pass rate on each day
  • Identify long running tests that are impacting a pipeline's efficiency by monitoring the average test duration on each day
  • Identify patterns in test outcomes. Has the test recently started to fail? Or, has the test always failed for the selected period? Or, is the test showing non-deterministic behavior?
  • Obtain insights into specific areas of interest to you based on test file, branch, or stage you own by configuring specific filters.
  • Obtain insights into a specific area you test by configuring the widget to focus on a test file, branch, or stage.

Test Results Trend charts require that you set up continuous testing in your build pipeline. To get deeper insights and data you can view the Test Failure report in the pipeline. For more information, see details Analyze test results.
