1. Page Objective

The Test a Notification page allows the user (or the support / QA team) to generate a test notification in order to:

• verify the proper functioning of local notifications
• check the display, content, and behavior of notifications
• test different notification types and priority levels

This page is mainly intended for testing and validation purposes.

2. Access Context

This page is accessible from:

• the Notifications page
• the context menu (⋮)
• the Test a notification option

It is displayed as a modal window on top of the Notifications page.
