Set up the Arcus CLI
Install the Arcus CLI, authenticate it, and connect a device, so Claude Code can validate and run Testsigma test cases on your machine. You do this once per machine.
Before you begin
This procedure requires:
- Node.js and npm installed on your machine.
- Claude Code installed. The latest version is recommended.
- An Arcus account and a Testsigma account. The free tier is enough to write, validate, and push test cases.
- An Android device, if you plan to run mobile test cases.
Install and authenticate the CLI
-
Install the CLI globally.
npm install -g @testsigma/arcus-cli -
Authenticate the CLI against your Testsigma account.
testsigma login
Install and authenticate the Claude Code plugin
Install the plugin, run /arcus:login, then set your active project with /arcus:project. See Connect Claude Code for the steps. The active project determines which project your test cases are pushed into, so set it before you push.
There are two separate logins and you need both. testsigma login authenticates the CLI so it can run test cases and report results. /arcus:login authenticates the plugin so Arcus can capture your context and use it for test generation. No data reaches Arcus until you run /arcus:push.
Connect a device with Testsigma Terminal
Complete this section if you plan to run Android mobile test cases.
- Download and install Testsigma Terminal.
- Open Testsigma Terminal.
- In the configuration settings, select Modern.
- Log in to Testsigma Terminal.
- Connect your Android device. The device appears in Testsigma Terminal.
Connect the device before you ask Claude Code to run a test case. A run cannot start without a connected device.
