Tricentis Sealights Python Agent - Quality Intelligence and Code Coverage

The sealights-python-agent integrates your Python applications with the Tricentis Sealights Quality Intelligence Platform. It provides real-time code coverage analysis, test optimization, and quality analytics for your CI/CD pipelines.

With this agent you can:

• Scan builds – map your source code so Sealights can track changes across builds and branches.

• Collect code coverage – capture per-test method-level coverage during test execution.

• Optimize testing – leverage Sealights Test Impact Analysis to run only the tests affected by recent code changes, reducing CI cycle time.

Compatibility

• Python 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14

• Test frameworks: pytest, unittest, unittest2, nose, Behave, Robot Framework

Installation

pip install sealights-python-agent

Quick Start

# 1. Scan your build
sl-python scan --tokenfile sltoken.txt --buildsessionidfile buildSessionId \
    --workspacepath .

# 2. Start a test session
sl-python start --tokenfile sltoken.txt --buildsessionidfile buildSessionId \
    --teststage "Unit Tests"

# 3. Run your tests with coverage
sl-python pytest --teststage "Unit Tests" <your test args...>

# 4. End the test session
sl-python end --tokenfile sltoken.txt --buildsessionidfile buildSessionId
