Release markers

A small, useful record

Save only the release context the timeline needs

Release markers are created manually at project level and apply as context when you review the project’s individual page histories.

Required

Version

Use the release name your team recognizes, such as v2.4.0, checkout-redesign, or a short deployment identifier.

Required

Release time

Place the marker at the actual deployment time so it sits correctly between the Lighthouse runs around it.

Optional

Notes

Record the useful clue: a new bundle, image migration, template change, campaign, or rollback.

Manage the record

Add a release once, then correct it when the details change

The dashboard keeps the marker form and the project’s added versions together. Existing entries can be edited or deleted without changing the underlying test results.

  • Create a marker with version, date and time, and optional notes.
  • Edit the label, timestamp, or notes when release information is corrected.
  • Delete a marker after confirmation when it no longer belongs in the project history.

A marker records timing, not causation. It helps you form a better hypothesis; it does not prove that the release caused the change.

Build the timeline first

Make the next release visible before the next score moves

Start with a free Lighthouse test. Then add the important pages to a project, build a repeatable history, and place releases beside the results.
