Gearset has a number of email notifications. This article will explain how to stop users from receiving unwanted emails for unit testing, change monitoring, CI jobs, and data backup. This article also explains how to reduce the frequency of emails received from each job.

For unit testing:

When you receive an email concerning unit test results, you will now be able to click the Unsubscribe link on the email.

When you click the Unsubscribe button, you will then be redirected to a new page with the following message:

For an change monitoring job:

Go to your monitoring dashboard, and then select the job you wish to turn off notifications. Then select the Edit settings button.

Then select the Notifications settings tab, and by the Email results to, remove your email.

After you have removed your email, click Save.

For a CI job:

Go to your Continuous Integration dashboard, and then select the job you wish to turn off notifications. Then select the Edit settings button.

Select the Notifications settings tab, and by the Email results to, remove your email.

Again, just like in a monitoring job, remove the email from the Email results to tab.

Once removed, click save.

For backup:

Go to your data backup job and select the backup job you wish to stop receiving emails from. Click on Edit job, and then Edit settings.

Once you are on edit settings, click on the notifications tab, and next to Email results to: , remove your email.

Then, click the Save button.

Reducing the frequency of email notifications:

(This is for all unit testing, monitoring, CI jobs, and data backup)

If you didn't want to receive emails on every run, you have the option to only be notified when a job fails or drops below a certain threshold. On the notifications tab (see above), select the drop-down menu next to Send Notifications: here you can select on every run or only if the unit test / monitoring / CI / data backup job fails. The choice is yours!
