Execution Failure Notifier

You can use this listener to listen for script execution failures in your instance and to notify you of the failure. You can specify which properties are extracted from the failing execution (for example, feature name, URL and stack trace) and have these details automatically sent to you via Slack, email, or another software platform. 

Fragments are not tracked by this listener

Fragments do not publish an execution failure event and therefore are not tracked by this listener. We have created a ticket for Fragments to be tracked by this listener, you can follow this ticket to keep up to date with the progress.
