Heroku
Sorry-cypress installation instructions for Heroku
Click the button below to deploy the basic, in-memory, standalone
director service to Heroku.
We'll create 3 separate Heroku applications - one for each service. Publicly available docker images of 3 services are available at:
The images are automatically updated on each release and tagged in accordance with GitHub releases.
sorry-cypress uses MongoDB as a persistence layer for storing and retrieving test results. We'll use a free hosted solution to run a managed instance of Atlas MongoDB.
Create 3 new Heroku application and give them appropriate names
heroku create <prefix>-director
heroku create <prefix>-api
heroku create <prefix>-dashboard
Run the commands to deploy
director , API and Dashboard services# Sign into Heroku Container Registry.
heroku container:login
# Pull services image
docker pull agoldis/sorry-cypress-director:latest
docker pull agoldis/sorry-cypress-api:latest
docker pull agoldis/sorry-cypress-dashboard:latest
# Tag service images as Heroku app image
docker tag agoldis/sorry-cypress-director:latest registry.heroku.com/<name_of_director_app>/web
docker tag agoldis/sorry-cypress-api:latest registry.heroku.com/<name_of_api_app>/web
docker tag agoldis/sorry-cypress-dashboard:latest registry.heroku.com/<name_of_dashboard_app>/web
# Push the images to Heroku Container Registry
docker push registry.heroku.com/<name_of_director_app>/web
docker push registry.heroku.com/<name_of_api_app>/web
docker push registry.heroku.com/<name_of_dashboard_app>/web
# Deploy the image
heroku container:release --app <name_of_director_app> web
heroku container:release --app <name_of_api_app> web
heroku container:release --app <name_of_dashboard_app> web
Choose the MongoDB provider of your choice and obtain connection details. You will need to set the credentials for newly deployed services.
Heroku has a plenty of add-ons that allows attaching a MongoDB cluster. The recommended way is to attach a MongoDB add-on to
director application and use the same credentials for API service.All you'll need is the database name and the access credentials so you can fill the Heroku config variables as we'll see right after. So go ahead to the MongoDB Atlas docs, get your database running and grab that data!
Because the creation of this cluster is very straightforward and well-written in the docs, we'll not cover that here.
Please refer to Storage Configuration instructions to configure Recordings Storage (failed tests screenshots and videos) and obtains credentials.

Reconfigure cypress agents and try running some tests. You will see test results appear in the newly installed dashboard.
