Sandbox Resources
In some cases, it is desirable to achieve a higher degree of isolation within Sandboxes Environments by setting up dedicated ephemeral resources. A few of these scenarios are as listed below:
- There are database schema changes involved in the sandbox environment which are not yet part of the baseline environment.
- There is a shared message queue involved which may be producing to / consuming from the baseline environment.
- There is a specific seed dataset required to hermetically run a particular integration test scenario in a sandbox environment.
In the above cases, you can make use of Resources and Resource Plugins to set up the desired level of isolation in your Sandbox environments.
