Synthetic browser tests are useful tools for ensuring that key user workflows function consistently across devices and locations. Monitoring email workflows is an important aspect of these tests, as email plays a crucial role in onboarding users and providing account information. By incorporating email verification into browser tests, developers can monitor the entire user experience from signup to confirmation emails. This allows for automatic verification of email content and testing links within those emails, ensuring a seamless user experience. Datadog's Synthetic Monitoring provides visibility into application and email workflows alongside infrastructure metrics, distributed traces, and logs, offering a comprehensive picture of end-to-end performance.
