Checks that are now being created or edited provide you with more details if the check is carried out for test purposes. You receive a more detailed output of the test results and can thus set up or edit the test more easily.
For example, you can view the HTML content we have retrieved and use it to better configure your test conditions. Many check-types also return other information that is helpful in setting up your check. If you have any questions or problems setting up checks, please contact us using the ticket support, which you can find in the dashboard menu under Help Center.
We would be happy to help you with the individual configuration of your server monitoring tests.
