Backtesting for Workflows

Testing workflow changes before they go live is now easier than ever.

We're excited to introduce Backtesting, your new tool for validating workflow logic against real historical data before making any changes active. Backtesting allows you to replay past events through a test version of your workflow and compare outcomes side by side, all without touching your production environment.

With Backtesting, you can:

• Validate before go-live: Confirm your workflow is behaving as expected by running historical data through it before setting it active.
• Experiment safely: All results are fully informational and excluded from live queues, analytics, and billing. There's no risk in testing.
• Optimize continuously: Measure how rule or threshold changes affect outcomes and alert volumes without waiting for new data to come in.
• Investigate outcome shifts: Click into any individual evaluation to view rule explainability and see exactly which rules fired and why.

To get started, open any workflow, click "Test," and select the Backtest option from the Testing Suite. You can also check out this guide for more information.
