Automated tests enable you to run security tests automatically, with two different trigger options:

* Automatic test on deploy: this will automatically perform a test whenever your app is deployed to live.
* Scheduled tests: this option lets you set up automated tests on a set schedule (such as daily/weekly/monthly).
