Core Concepts

SeaLights SBT Plugin uses shared Java Build Tools concepts:

• Build Scanner: collects project info and prepares instrumentation

• Test Listener: streams test execution to SeaLights

• Build Session ID: unique identifier per build

• Test Stages: logical grouping of tests (Unit, Integration)

• Execution Modes: control what runs (full run, scan only, tests only, disabled)

See Java Build Tools Plugins for details on Core Concepts.

Execution Modes

Mode	Configuration	Description
Full Run	default	Build scan + instrumented tests
Scan Only	sealightsRunScanOnly := Some(true)	Only run Build Scanner, skip tests
Tests Only	sealightsRunTestOnly := Some(true)	Reuse previous scan, run tests only
Disabled	sealightsDisabled := Some(true)	Skip SeaLights integration

Note: Modes can also be configured in JSON via executionType (scanonly / testsonly / disabled).
