We currently have some live site tests running three times a week, and others running once a week. We're also inconsistent in the applications and variants we run live site tests against. Let's consolidate and run live site tests on the same frequency as our other infrequent tests and include more variants such as Fission, Fenix and GeckoView.

:davehunt, is anyone actively using the metrics from those tests? Maybe we should drop all of them down to once a week?

I believe :acreskey is, perhaps :jesup too? I'm open to us changing the schedule but would still like to consolidate to reduce the complexity and maintenance burden. The problem with once/week is that if there's a build failure or intermittent test failure we could go two weeks without results.

I do look at the Fenix live site performance (via arewefastyet.com), arguably our most representative metrics :), on a weekly basis.

But because they are live sites and somewhat noisy, only having one data point for a site per week would make it harder to pick up potential problems.
If resources weren't a concern, I would vote for daily runs.

I agree with andew; I check them on a roughly weekly basis, but running once/week is too infrequent (given noise) to be of any real use. I'd love 1/day
