Notifications

Configure in-app and email notifications for test runs, cases, reviews, and defects you're involved in.

Qase sends notifications through two channels: in-app (the bell icon in the top-right corner) and email. You control which events trigger notifications through your personal notification preferences.

Notifications are scoped to entities you're assigned to or mentioned in, you won't get noise from unrelated activity.

Configuring Preferences

  1. Select your profile icon in the top-right corner.

  2. Choose Notifications.

  3. Toggle individual event types on or off for each channel (in-app and email).

Changes take effect immediately.

How Notifications Are Delivered

Both channels are independent, you can enable email for critical events (like run assignments) and keep in-app only for lower-priority updates (like comment mentions).

  • In-app - a badge appears on the bell icon. Select it to see your notification feed with links to the relevant entity.

    The in-app notification feed opened from the badged bell icon, each entry linking to its entity

  • Email - sent to the email address associated with your Qase account. Email notifications include enough context to understand the event without opening Qase.

👉 If you're not receiving email notifications, check your spam/junk folder. Qase notification emails come from a qase.io domain.
