Sync problems

Sidebar shows “Last sync failed” Try clicking Sync Codebase again. If it keeps failing, check Configuration → CI / Repos for a connection health warning. Your GitHub connection may need to be re-provisioned or reconnected. “No tests found” after syncing Double-check the Tests directory and Spec file extensions under Configuration → Codebase. Watchtower only imports files that match both. A test I expected to see is missing If a test’s title changed in your repository, Watchtower keeps it as an abandoned test rather than deleting it, so your history and comments aren’t lost. Open it from Test Center’s Abandoned filter and use Rebind to a renamed test to reconnect it. See Test Center.

​
Connection problems

“Something went wrong connecting the repo” This usually means the GitHub App installation didn’t complete, or access to the selected repository was revoked. Go to Configuration → CI / Repos and try Connect GitHub again. I disconnected a repository but it’s still installed on GitHub Disconnecting in Watchtower only stops Watchtower from using that repository; it doesn’t remove the GitHub App itself. Manage or fully revoke access from your GitHub account or organization settings. Watchman isn’t posting reviews Confirm AI analysis is turned on under Configuration → Watchman, and check that the Review Target is set to a destination that’s actually available (GitHub is supported today; Linear is not yet available even though it’s shown in the picker).

​
Patrol problems

A run’s progress bar isn’t moving smoothly For runs dispatched to CI, Watchtower can’t see per-test progress until results are reported back; the progress indicator shows a general sweep rather than an exact percentage in that case. Check the console panel for live log output in the meantime. I can’t change a test’s status by hand If a test is controlled by Patrol (tagged AUTO and automated), its status reflects the most recent run and can only change by running Patrol again. This is by design, so automated results can’t drift from manual edits. ”‘<suite>’ is already running” Only one run per suite can be active at a time. Wait for it to finish, or use Cancel All to stop it and start a new one.

​
Reports & comparisons

Compare says “Not enough data to compare” You need at least two recorded Patrol runs before Compare can show a delta. Run Patrol again and try once a second run has completed.

Notifications

Not receiving release emails Email release notifications are off by default. Turn them on under Configuration → Codebase → Notifications, and confirm your address is included as the repository owner or listed under Additional recipients.
