testdriver:self-hosted

<!-- Generated from self-hosted.mdx. DO NOT EDIT. -->

Self-hosted is our enterprise solution. Use it for teams that need unlimited test runs, infrastructure control, and dedicated support. The price uses parallel test capacity with a flat license fee. There is no per-second bill.

<CardGroup cols={2}> <Card title="Unlimited Execution" icon="infinity"> Run as many tests as you want. There is no device-second count. The monthly costs are known. </Card> <Card title="Assisted Setup & Support" icon="headset"> Our team helps you to deploy, configure, and optimize your infrastructure.

Deployment Options

Select the level of control that 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
• Your AI keys — control costs with your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or other provider
• Custom AMIs — install specific software, configure networking

Step-by-step instructions for deploying TestDriver on your AWS infrastructure using CloudFormation. </Card>

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>

Implementation Process

<Steps> <Step title="Discovery Call"> Discuss your requirements, security constraints, and integration needs with our team. </Step> <Step title="Architecture Review"> Our engineers design a deployment architecture that meets your security and compliance requirements. </Step> <Step title="Deployment"> We work with your team to deploy TestDriver, including assisted setup and configuration. </Step> <Step title="Integration"> Connect TestDriver to your CI/CD pipelines, internal tools, and workflows. </Step> <Step title="Training & Handoff"> Comprehensive training for your team on operating and maintaining the deployment. </Step> </Steps>
