Synthetics: Create test from synthetics.json

[j-boivie-rs]

Feature request description

Hi folks,

I'm looking at incorporating this tool to run E2E tests in my CI pipelines, but there is one feature that I feel is missing:

It would be really nice if the tool could create tests from synthetics.json files if they don't already exist. That way I could store all test configuration next to my application code, and have my CI pipeline manage the entire test lifecycle. In the current setup I would first need to create the test and then somehow pass the resulting ID:s into the the synthetics.json (either by templating or hardcoding?), which is a bit more cumbersome.

Solution

Provide some mechanism for the datadog-ci synthetics command to create a test based on a synthetics.json file.
