Skip to main content
Watchtower is a single-screen app. The sidebar and top bar stay in place while the main panel switches between views. Nothing here requires a page reload or a different URL; you’re always just one click away from any other view. The sidebar is your main way of moving around Watchtower.
  • Sync Codebase (or Connect Codebase before a repository is linked): re-imports your test files and reconciles the inventory with what’s actually in your repository. A status line underneath shows the last sync result, such as synced · <commit> · <time ago> or a warning if something needs attention.
  • Dashboard: pass-rate trends, release readiness, and QA reports.
  • Test Center: your test inventory, Patrol runs, and run comparisons.
  • Trash: recover deleted test cases, with a badge showing how many are waiting.
  • Watchman: AI-assisted review of pull requests and commits.
  • Project Settings: a small menu with Export (download your data) and Configuration (all connection and workspace settings).
  • Overall stats strip: a quick Passed / Failed / Blocked count across every test, pinned near the bottom.
  • Your profile: opens a menu with Manage account, Preferences, Contact Us, and Sign out.

​
Top bar

The top bar shows the title of whatever you’re looking at, along with:
  • Current folder: a breadcrumb and dropdown for jumping between test folders.
  • Environment picker: filters what you see to a specific environment (staging, production, etc.), when environments are configured.
  • Patrol progress: a live chip appears here whenever a test run is active, so you can see progress without leaving the page you’re on.
  • Help Center: opens Watchtower’s built-in help articles.
  • Notifications: a bell icon with an unread badge; click it to see recent activity like completed runs or connection changes, and use Mark all as read to clear it.
  • Console: toggles a live log panel (Patrol has its own console built in, so this toggle is hidden while you’re on that view).
