Now, with scheduling for Record & Replay and automated screenshots, you can set tests to run on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. You can also have the results sent to you via email or Slack. Scheduling is the next step in helping our customers achieve continuous testing without learning highly technical CI tools like Jenkins, TeamCity, and VS Team Services.

Scroll down to Suite Schedules and select Add Schedule.

Decide if you want to run the suite on a daily, weekly, or monthly schedule and set a time for it to run. Choose your preferred way of notification (via email or Slack), and select Add Schedule.
For automated screenshots
-
Go to View Test Results under Screenshots in the CrossBrowserTesting.
