Getting Started
Next steps
Progress to agents, schedules, topology, remediation, and CI integration.
Overview
After your first successful run, mature teams expand along four axes: automation (agents and schedules), integration (CI/CD and webhooks), observability (Test Health, reports, Topology), and governance (release gates and remediation).
The paths below are ordered by typical enterprise adoption, adjust pace based on compliance requirements and team size.
Who should read this
- QA engineers, SREs, platform teams, and developers operating Zof Console and APIs.
When to use this workflow
- Onboarding new team members to Zof terminology and workflows
- Authoring internal runbooks aligned with Console labels
- Designing CI/CD or webhook integrations against documented behavior
Step-by-step procedure
Week 1: Stabilize core workflow
Invite team members and assign roles via Admin Center.
Organize cases into suites for smoke and regression.
Configure notification routing in Settings.
Week 2: Automate execution
Create schedules for nightly regression on staging.
Enable relevant AI testing agents from the catalog.
Register cloud or endpoint agents if desktop or restricted workloads apply.
Week 3: Integrate pipeline
Generate API keys in Admin → Developer.
Add Zof validation step to GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins.
Configure webhooks for run completion notifications.
Month 2: Governance
Configure release gates in Governance → Releases.
Explore Topology for dependency-aware coverage planning.
Evaluate governed remediation workflows if enabled for your organization.
Key concepts
- Organization scope
- All Zof Console and API operations are isolated to your authenticated tenant.
- Governed execution
- Agent output and remediation follow policy packs with human approval when configured.
Best practices
- Validate changes in staging before applying release gates to production.
- Include run IDs and timestamps when escalating issues to support or auditors.
- Align internal runbook terminology with Zof Console UI labels for clarity.
