The Insight interface

A reference for Insight's navigation, the Explorer layout, and the Testing overview.

Insight has a simple, consistent layout: a top navigation bar across the whole app, and within the Explorer a left sidebar, a toolbar and the data grid. This page is a reference for each area and what it does.

Top navigation

The bar at the top of every page switches between Insight's areas.
