The continuous tests feature automatically runs a set of test cases configured for an environment to verify the intended behavior of the flow versions in that environment.
To prevent a bad version from becoming live in the environment, you can also use continuous deployment to run the same set of verification tests before deploying a flow version to the environment.
Manage continuous tests and deployment
To manage continuous tests and deployment:
Console
Open the Dialogflow CX Console.
Choose your GCP project.
Select your agent.
