Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/healthchecks/healthchecks/issues/391

I am self hosting my healthchecks and after a connectivity issue a few of my integrations are red. They didn't turn back green when I tested them to see if they are working. I think this should be added cause they should not stay red until the next real alarm is send.

Thanks for the suggestion, makes sense.

I changed how the "Test!" button works:

sending test notification now creates a Notification object, same as for normal notifications. Consequently, sending a test notification now updates the "Status" and "Last Notification" columns in the Integrations page:

sending a test notification now updates (sets or clears) the Channel.last_error field. This is what determines if we show the red exclamation sign in top nav or not.

Thanks!

Does this also mean both notification are send from the same process?

No, normal notifications are sent by the manage.py sendalerts process. Test notifications are sent by the web server process while handling the HTTP request.

Good to clarify that. I noticed this error initially while debugging this.
