Deployment Options

Choose the level of control you need:

| Component | Standard | Air-Gapped | |-----------|----------|------------| | **Test Sandboxes** | Your AWS | Your infrastructure (any cloud or on-prem) | | **Dashboard** | TestDriver hosted | Your infrastructure | | **API** | TestDriver hosted | Your infrastructure | | **AI Processing** | Your API keys | Your infrastructure | | **Data Storage** | Your AWS account | 100% your infrastructure | | **Network** | Internet access required | Fully air-gapped | | **Cloud Providers** | AWS | AWS, Azure, GCP, on-prem |

Standard Deployment

Run test sandboxes on your AWS infrastructure while using TestDriver's hosted dashboard and API:

• **Quick setup** via CloudFormation — deploy in hours
• **Dashboard access** at [console.testdriver.ai](https://console.testdriver.ai)
• **Your AI keys** — control costs with your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or other provider
• **Custom AMIs** — install specific software, configure networking

Air-Gapped Deployment

Deploy the entire TestDriver stack in your environment for complete isolation:

• **Full stack** — dashboard, API, and test infrastructure all in your environment
• **No external dependencies** — data never leaves your network perimeter
• **Any infrastructure** — AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premises
• **Regulated industries** — government, defense, healthcare, finance

Custom VM Images

Build test environments with your applications, dependencies, and user data pre-installed. You get full access to:

• **Golden VM** — our pre-configured base image with TestDriver agent, drivers, and optimizations
• **Packer scripts** — build custom AMIs with your applications, user data, and configurations
• **Faster test startup** — skip installation steps by baking dependencies into your image
• **Consistent environments** — every test runs on an identical, reproducible machine

<AccordionGroup> <Accordion title="What can you customize?">

• Install applications (browsers, desktop apps, dev tools)
• Configure user accounts and credentials
• Set up network proxies and certificates
• Install fonts, language packs, and locales
• Pre-seed databases or test fixtures
• Configure Windows/Linux settings

</Accordion>

<Accordion title="How it works"> 1. We provide our golden VM base image and Packer scripts 2. You customize the scripts to install your software and configuration 3. Run Packer to build your custom AMI 4. Configure TestDriver to use your custom AMI for test sandboxes 5. Tests spin up with everything pre-installed — no setup time wasted </Accordion> </AccordionGroup>
