AWS Lambda

AWS Lambda triggers Testsigma test plans from a function, with CodeCommit as the typical event source. The handler runs a script holding the test plan details, so any Lambda trigger can start testing.

Prerequisites

• The trigger script (aws-testsigma.sh) packaged with the function.

Configure the function

1. Create the function: under AWS Lambda > Functions, click Create Function. Fill in the basic information and click Create Function.

2. Check the handler: scroll down to Basic Settings for the handler file and timeout details. In the example, hello.handler is the handler file, and it contains the aws-testsigma.sh file.

3. Set the script inputs: aws-testsigma.sh carries the test plan information the trigger needs:

   aws-testsigma.sh inputs

   #********START USER_INPUTS ********
   
   TESTSIGMA_USER_NAME=<Username>
   TESTSIGMA_PASSWORD=<Password>
   TESTSIGMA_TEST_PLAN_RUN_URL=<Test Plan URL containing the unique Test Plan id>
   MAX_WAIT_TIME_FOR_SCRIPT_TO_EXIT=180
   JSON_OUTPUT_REPORTS_DIR=.
   
   #********END USER_INPUTS***********

   The test plan URL comes from the REST API call to start Test Plan section in Testsigma.

4. Trigger the run: click TEST at the top right corner. The function fires and the test plan starts.

Note

This legacy script authenticates with a username and password. Current API calls use a bearer API key instead, as in the shell script; prefer its inputs.
