How Snoozing Works

Tests can be snoozed for 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, a custom date/time, or indefinitely until manually unsnoozed.
Snoozed tests and their dependencies will not run until the snooze period expires or is manually removed.

What Gets Paused When You Snooze

When you snooze a test, the following are also paused:
  • Test execution in all contexts: The snoozed test will not run in scheduled suites, test plans, or CI pipelines
  • Dependent child tests: Any tests that depend on the snoozed test as a parent will also be snoozed
  • All automated triggers: Scheduled runs, CI integrations, and test plan executions skip the snoozed test
Snoozed tests can still be triggered manually if you run that specific test individually (not if you run the full suite).

Impact on Dependencies

When you snooze a test that has dependencies:
  • Child tests dependent on the snoozed parent test will not run
  • The entire dependency chain below the snoozed test is paused
  • This prevents failures from tests that depend on setup from the snoozed test
For more details on how dependencies work, see the Dependencies section.

Use Cases

Snooze tests that check features currently being deployed or updated. This prevents false failures during the deployment window.
Temporarily snooze tests failing due to known bugs that are being addressed. This keeps your test results clean while fixes are in progress.
Snooze tests during scheduled maintenance periods when the application or specific features are intentionally unavailable.
Snooze tests for variations not currently active in your A/B testing setup.
