Deployment Guide

SeaLights empowers your team to achieve efficient and impactful testing through its intelligent architecture. This guide outlines the key steps to get you started.

1. Prepare Your Environment:

  • Ensure your application build is ready for SeaLights integration.

  • Verify the availability of tests to run against your application.

  • Confirm connectivity for SeaLights agents on all target machines.

2. Install and Configure Agents:

  • Generate a SeaLights token.

  • Install and configure agents and plugins on participating machines based on your technology stack.

  • Scan your application build to generate initial code coverage data.

3. Integrate with Your Workflow:

  • Choose to integrate SeaLights with your CI/CD pipeline or a non-CI environment.

  • Provide essential application and environment details.

4. Connect Test Frameworks:

  • Integrate SeaLights with your test framework(s) for automated reporting of test execution data and potentially leverage framework-specific features.

    • Refer to SeaLights documentation for supported frameworks and integration instructions.

    • Alternatively, use SeaLights public APIs to connect a testing framework that is not currently supported by SeaLights.

5. Set Test Selection Policies:

  • Utilize SeaLights' interface to define test selection policies that align with your testing strategy.

    • Choose from pre-defined policies to tailor test selection based on specific criteria.

    • For some policies, the activation is done manually by SeaLights.

6. Start Running Tests:

  • Run your intended tests, allowing SeaLights to collect data and refine its recommendations over time.

  • Observe SeaLights' recommendations for test exclusion based on its analysis.

Additional Notes

  • For each step, consult SeaLights documentation or seek support for tailored guidance.

  • Remember, these steps offer a general overview, and adjustments might be necessary for your specific environment and needs.
