Arcus elastic test provides a framework for getting test results with minimal effort from a selection of integrated Elastic Test Tools. To use elastic test first:

1. Import a Test Asset
2. Add the Test Asset to a Deployment
3. Launch the Deployment

When Arcus launches the deployment, it creates an elastic test tool VM in your cloudspace. When the deployment is up and ready, Arcus automatically executes the Test Asset (imported in Step 1) on the test tool VM. When the test completes, the test results are stored with the run, and you will receive an email notification.

The ElasticTest Tool VM powers down once the tests have been completed. This frees up resources in your cloudspace. If a re-test is requested, the tools will power on for only the duration of the test.

Running a Re-Test

1. First, make any necessary changes (e.g. security patches or code bug fixes)
2. Navigate to the Run page
3. Click the Re-Test button
