Add the ability to trigger alerts for testing purposes
It would be useful to have a "Test Alert" button for each configured alert in order to integrate and test alerts with third-party systems. Otherwise, it is difficult if not impossible to determine what the alert will look like until it is triggered.

I think this functionality is essential to test the alert integration in a right way, is not enough to test the message arrives, is necessary to check each one of the alerts and the message it sends works as expected on the receiving endpoint.
