We tailor-built Foresight work flawlessly with GitHub Actions to offer you the best seamless monitoring/debugging experience.
You can integrate your GitHub Actions pipeline workflow with Foresight to monitor the test runs of your Java project with Maven and Gradle.
Prerequisites
The required parameters are the Thundra API Key and the Thundra Project ID, which can be obtained from the project settings screen.
Once you get your keys, make sure to set it as a secret. 
Be aware that to trace JUnit5 tests, junit-platform-launcher and junit-platform-engine dependencies must be available at classpath during test execution.
As you can add those dependencies one by one, you can also simply add only junit-platform-runner dependency which includes both other dependencies mentioned above transitively.

Parameters
Name
Requirement
Description
apikey
Required
Thundra API Key
project_id
Required
Your project id from Thundra. Will be used to filter and classify your testruns.
command
Optional
The Maven command you want to run. The given command will be executed right after the instrumentation. However, if it's not present, the action will end once the instrumentation is finished. This is optional in case you want to do more before you actually run your tests.
