It is easy to know whether the system is of high availability. Ensure a secure feature rollout.
Recording browser tests is simple, reliable, and visually friendly. It has simple controls to stop and start the recording and generated test steps that were relatively easy to customize, remove, insert, and rearrange.
All the services are best But infrastructure monitoring and Log management even newly kid can work upon to user friendly
- Sometimes it's hard to find a specific trace during developing / debugging from my test account. And it's hard to know where it's dropped. - UI could be a bit unintuitive, sometimes it's hard to navigate and find the dashboard i want. - Not intuitive on where to add more info for the trace. How to search or build a dashboard with http request info from a trace.
The test suite tends to have flaky failures about ~40% of the time, which makes it nearly impossible to rely on for definitive test results. Also, managing large lists of tests is very hard with the current UI and list-based system. One flow with branched logic would require one test per branch, relying on naming conventions and tagging to keep them organized, which is difficult at scale.
I can suggest software work upon reliability/latency rest I'm happy with product and services

Convenient Screen Recording Features Offset by Unreliable Test Execution Issues
The DataDog synthetic testing product has convenient screen recording options but unreliable test execution and poor test management UI, making it very hard to manage large test suites and rely on results. - Engineer1B-10B USDBankingReview Source
Difficulties in Locating Specific Traces and Navigating the Dashboard Interface
Overall it's good. Sometimes I want to use the traces to debug, but the trace won't be able to show up from my test/employee account, so it hasn't been very consistent. - It Associate50M-1B USDHardwareReview Source
