gRPC, SSL, and Traceroute monitors are generally available — permalink

Three new monitor types, now available to everyone: check gRPC endpoints, catch expiring certificates, and trace network paths. Create and manage them from the web app, API, CLI, or your Monitoring as Code setup, with detailed assertions and diagnostics.

Web Vitals in Playwright Check Suite results — permalink

Playwright Check Suites now collect six Web Vitals for every page your tests visit — LCP, CLS, INP, FCP, TTFB, and TBT, scored against the web.dev thresholds. No changes to your tests needed: metrics show up per page visit in the same result view you already use for functional failures, and each LCP and INP score expands into a breakdown of where the time went.

Status Pages now publish RSS, Atom, and Slack feeds — permalink

Every status page now exposes RSS and Atom feeds, and incident updates can flow straight into a Slack channel. Subscribers get incidents where they already work instead of refreshing a status page.
