A provisioning action is a set of actions that execute when you provision a particular component instance. They can be executed on-demand or when a simulated test environment is provisioned in Continuous Testing Platform.
Provisioning actions can be used to automate configurations that are commonly applied in your environments. For example, you might run a script for changing certain environment settings, then update a settings file via FTP. You could use a provisioning action to add or erase data in a Data Repository. Or, if you’re not working with message proxies, you might want to automatically go to an application server’s web admin console and configuring it to point to a virtual asset instead of a real endpoint (or vice versa).
