[UX Design] Synthetic Monitoring

[btzeng]

Background

Synthetic monitoring allows users to monitor application availability and request/response time across multiple locations in real time. Metrics, trace and analytics provide insights of entity health when drilling down to detailed content to further troubleshoot before they get to customers.

User story

1. As a devop/[xyz user], I want to monitor my test suits when observing uptime and response time by region in a summary view.
2. With the ability to switch between different visualization types (histogram, network diagram, map), I can monitor stability and health (by region) in the applicable views.
3. In the test result area, I want to be able to look at each test suit in detail and monitor their status, response time and trace with additional analytics.
