How to manually run a control test anytime

Tests automatically run every evening (PST) in Drata, but you're also able to manually trigger them anytime

HERE'S WHY


If you've made updates in the system or to configuration(s) across your tech stack, you may want to re-run the test for a security control (or many) manually to ensure you're still compliant.

NOTE: All tests are run every evening at 7:00pm PST. This feature allows manual testing at any time.

BEFORE DIVING IN

Only account administrators or information security leads have access to this section within Drata.

HERE'S HOW

When you go to a specific control test on the 'Monitoring' page, you can click on either the green checkmark for a passing test or the red 'Fix Now' button to open the drawer for that test, providing more details.

Within the drawer, you will see a blue 'Test Now' button. By selecting this button you will be able to re-run the test in real-time to confirm your current compliance status for that test.
