Collect Footprints data for your Pipeline

Collect Footprints data for your Pipeline

If you have connected Tosca to SeaLights, you can configure the Agent to collect details for test executions in Tosca. When you run a test, the Agent matches the ABAP components that you executed against objects in the latest Build Modification. It then sends this data to SeaLights as a Footprint.

To configure the Agent to collect Footprints data for your Pipeline, run the following command from your terminal:

This command creates a FOOTPRINTS scheduled task that runs every five minutes to collect Footprints data and send it to SeaLights.

To stop collecting Footprints data, run:

Command Prompt

Stop command

slabapcli.exe footprints stop --pipeline <pipeline-name>

PowerShell

Filtering Footprints Data

You can exclude specific SCMON context objects from footprints collection using the typequeries field in the [footprints] section of config.toml. This is useful for filtering out standard SAP programs, transactions, or function modules that are not relevant to your testing.

See Configuration settings — Footprints type queries for syntax and examples.

When you stop or replace a footprints task, the agent automatically terminates any running watcher process for that task.
