help SmartBear AlertSite FAQ

What does an AlertSite transaction monitor actually test?

AlertSite's transaction monitor uses a real browser such as Chrome or Firefox to follow recorded steps on a website. It can report detailed load times, user-experience metrics, external-file timing, and screenshots. [AlertSite monitor documentation](https://support.smartbear.com/alertsite/docs/monitors/index.html)

Can SmartBear AlertSite monitor APIs as well as websites?

Yes. AlertSite supports URL checks, API monitoring, SoapUI tests, Selenium tests, and mobile web or real-device monitors. The available monitor types depend on the plan. [AlertSite monitor documentation](https://support.smartbear.com/alertsite/docs/monitors/index.html)

What information is included in an AlertSite failure alert?

An alert can include the monitor name, failure type, affected location, HTTP response details, error message, response time, and a screenshot of the failed browser state. AlertSite can also require confirmation from multiple monitoring locations before paging a team. [SmartBear AlertSite alerts](https://smartbear.com/product/alertsite/accurate-alerts/)

How often and from where does AlertSite run checks?

AlertSite lets an account configure monitoring locations, run intervals, timeouts, and alert rules. Its usage-based monitoring model also ties the number and type of checks to the selected plan.
