Scenario:

"I am trying to run Hybrid(Local) Executions. When I start the execution, my tests stay Queued and doesn't start?"

This is a very common scenario and is mostly caused due to incorrect or incomplete configuration in Testsigma Account or the local machine.


Troubleshooting Steps:

Step 1. Check if Testsigma Agent is running or not

CHECK: Confirm that the Testsigma Agent is running by going to Agents page: Navigation > Agents

If the agent is not running then you will see that the last request time is not recent. If the agent is running, the request time will be less than 1 minute ago. In the above image, you can see that the last request time was 28 seconds ago which means the Agent is online.


"Out of Sync" will be shown if the agent is on an older version and needs time to auto-update.

"Unable to reach Agent" will be shown if the Testsigma App cloud server has not got any message from local Agent since a long time.

If the Agent is "Out of Sync", go to http://localhost:8080/agent page to see if the agent is up and running.

If the page doesn't load, it might be updating to the latest version. Wait for about 15 minutes for the agent to update and try the above URL again. If it is showing version info, refresh the Testsigma Agents page to see if the "Out of Sync" message has gone.


If there's no change, follow the below guide to reinstall the agent:

Step 2. If registered properly, check the Test Plans/Dry Runs tab

CHECK: Go to the Agent > Test Plans page and confirm there's no Queued tests in Test Plans or Dry Runs tab.

If there are queued tests, wait for them to finish or stop them for your new tests to run.


Step 3. If there are no Queued Tests, check if there's a mismatch in IP Address or Port

CHECK: Confirm that the IP Address in Testsigma Agent Dashboard(http://localhost:8080/agent) is same as the IP Address for the Agent shown above.


Step 4. If there are no Queued Tests and the IP Address is also correct, please contact Support
