Recruiter screens can feel like a mystery. What are we actually looking for, and how do you stand out in just 15 minutes?

Take a look at the top 10 status page tools in 2025 — from legacy platforms to modern, dev-first options.

We're announcing that Checkly is now a launch partner in Vercel's Observability Marketplace! This integration makes it easier than ever for Vercel users to monitor their deployments with end-to-end testing and API monitoring powered by Checkly.

Checkly introduces Status Pages: An easy and transparent way to keep your customers and stakeholders informed when things go wrong.

By combining Page Object Models with Playwright fixtures, you can streamline your test code and enhance the developer experience. This approach reduces repetition and makes your test cases more readable and maintainable. I’ve become a big fan of this method and will be incorporating more fixture-based POMs in my Playwright projects.

Learn how integrating Checkly with Render improves deployment reliability, catches issues early, and enhances production stability for complex applications.

Discover why minimizing Mean Time to Resolution (MTTR) is critical for B2B SaaS companies to maintain uptime, customer trust, and revenue growth.

Learn why using page.waitForTimeout() in Playwright leads to unreliable tests and discover better alternatives to improve your test automation workflow.

Running Playwright tests sequentially can slow execution and cause failures. Learn better strategies like fixtures and test steps for stable automation.

Checkly’s new TCP checks let you monitor databases, mail servers, and messaging queues for connectivity, failures, and real-time issue detection.

With Checkly, you can know within minutes if your service is unavailable for users, or acting unexpectedly. In this article we’ll talk about how Checkly traces can help you expand on the benefits of Checkly, adding insights that will help you diagnose root causes, and further reduce your mean time to resolution (MTTR) for outages and other incidents.

Checkly is the industry’s best tool to monitor your production applications. With the power of playwright, developers can test the systems they’ve developed, and roll out those tests as production monitors running from multiple geographies on the Checkly system. And Checkly monitors thousands of API endpoints with complex validation, setup and cleanup scripts, and reliable alerting. So why are we expanding into TCP-based checks? Aren’t those network layer concerns, and outside the responsibilities of application developers? Networking is shifting Left 10 years ago, it’s true, services that were only available via TCP requests might have been the sole responsibility of network admins. They might use DIY tools to repeatedly ping their services. Of course, at that time network admins might test their network-level resources a few times a month and feel sure that everything was working as expected. In the era of user-created subdomains and container services, our network config changes at

While there’s no single right answer for everyone, this post tries to break down how you can find the right cadence for your site checks.

Checkly sends an alert every time the system detects a failure, but how can you be sure you’re getting those alerts, and that those alerts are going to the right people? This guide gives the best strategies to configure your alerts for team success.
