When your alert rule conditions are no longer met by your test (or the alert rule is updated such that the conditions no longer meet the criteria of the alert), the Alert cleared message is posted in your Slack channel. You can click the message link to open the ThousandEyes app at the Views screen for the alert cleared time.
