# Testing Issues

# Problem: Tests Are Taking Too Long

Symptoms

  • Tests exceed expected completion times
  • System appears to hang during testing
  • Timeout errors during test execution

Solutions

1. Reduce Test Scope

  • Start with Quick Test instead of Comprehensive
  • Select fewer test scenarios for initial testing
  • Test with a smaller subset of probes

2. Check System Performance

  • Monitor AI application response times
  • Verify sufficient system resources
  • Check for concurrent testing or high system load

3. Optimize Configuration

  • Increase timeout settings if appropriate
  • Adjust test intensity to conservative level
  • Review prompt complexity and length

# Problem: Unexpected Test Results

Symptoms

  • Tests showing failures that seem incorrect
  • Inconsistent results between test runs
  • False positive alerts

Solutions

1. Verify AI Application Behavior

  • Test your AI application independently
  • Check for recent changes or updates
  • Verify application is functioning normally

2. Review Test Configuration

  • Ensure selected test scenarios are appropriate
  • Check test intensity and parameters
  • Verify application type configuration

3. Analyze Specific Failures

  • Review individual test failures in detail
  • Check if failures are legitimate security concerns
  • Compare results with baseline behavior

# Problem: No Test Results or Empty Reports

Symptoms

  • Tests complete but show no results
  • Empty or incomplete reports
  • Missing data in dashboards

Solutions

  • Verify test actually executed successfully
  • Check for filtering that might hide results
  • Review test scope and scenario selection
  • Contact support if data appears to be missing

# Authentication and Access Issues

# Problem: Cannot Log Into Teev Platform

Symptoms

  • Login failures with correct credentials
  • Account lockout messages
  • "User not found" errors

Solutions

1. Password Issues

  • Use password reset functionality
  • Check for caps lock or keyboard layout issues
  • Verify email address is correct

2. Account Status

  • Check if account is active and not suspended
  • Verify email address has been confirmed
  • Contact admin if using enterprise SSO

3. Browser Issues

  • Clear browser cache and cookies
  • Try different browser or incognito mode
  • Disable browser extensions that might interfere

# Problem: Permission Denied Errors

Symptoms

  • "Access denied" when trying to run tests
  • Cannot view certain reports or applications
  • Missing menu options or features

Solutions

  • Check your assigned role and permissions
  • Contact team admin to verify access rights
  • Ensure you're accessing the correct organization
  • Review application-specific permissions

# Performance Issues

# Problem: Slow Dashboard Loading

Symptoms

  • Long loading times for dashboards
  • Timeouts when viewing reports
  • Slow response to user interactions

Solutions

  • Check internet connection speed and stability
  • Clear browser cache and refresh page
  • Try accessing during off-peak hours
  • Reduce date range for large reports

# Problem: API Rate Limiting

Symptoms

  • "Rate limit exceeded" error messages
  • Throttled API responses
  • Delayed test execution

Solutions

  • Review your API usage and quotas
  • Spread testing across longer time periods
  • Consider upgrading plan for higher limits
  • Implement exponential backoff in automated testing

# Data and Reporting Issues

# Problem: Missing Historical Data

Symptoms

  • Gaps in historical reporting
  • Previous test results not showing
  • Incomplete trend analysis

Solutions

  • Check data retention settings and policies
  • Verify you're looking at correct time ranges
  • Ensure filters aren't excluding relevant data
  • Contact support for data recovery assistance

# Problem: Export/Download Failures

Symptoms

  • Cannot download reports or data exports
  • Corrupted or incomplete downloads
  • Export timeouts or errors

Solutions

  • Try smaller date ranges for large exports
  • Use different file formats (CSV vs PDF)
  • Check browser download settings and permissions
  • Ensure sufficient disk space for downloads

# Integration Issues

# Problem: Webhook Notifications Not Working

Symptoms

  • Missing notifications for completed tests
  • Webhook endpoint not receiving data
  • Incomplete or malformed webhook payloads

Solutions

1. Verify Webhook Configuration

  • Check webhook URL is correct and accessible
  • Verify authentication settings if required
  • Test webhook endpoint independently

2. Check Network Connectivity

  • Ensure webhook endpoint is publicly accessible
  • Verify firewall allows incoming webhooks
  • Check for SSL/TLS certificate issues

3. Review Webhook Logs

  • Check Teev webhook delivery logs
  • Review your endpoint logs for incoming requests
  • Verify payload format matches expectations

# Problem: CI/CD Integration Failures

Symptoms
