Docker is a platform that enables to build, share and run application or services in isolated containers

In order to run test you need an agent
Agent is a powerful wrapper for Selenium and Appium
Once you install and start agent, can run tests on all browsers and devices connected on that system
Agent contains all drivers and configurations setup for selenium and appium

*Why do we need TestProject Agent on Docker*
Flexible - Can setup and run agent anytime - quickly and easily
Can use a single command to setup a Docker container with required browsers and TestProject agent
Can create a container when required and remove after execution
Can use permanent or temporary (ephemeral) docker containers
No need of physical machines with separate OS, browsers etc
Saves resource, time & cost
Integrates well with CI/CD workflow

How to download and install

Stopping other servers (Selenium & Appium)... Stopping ADB... ADB Stopped. Unregistering Agent... Deleting agent identity file: id.dat
All modules stopped. Agent state machine stopped. Agent will exit with code: 5 *** AGENT - STOP *** testproject-agent exited with code 5

Test project Agent status shows disconnected. No jobs gets executed. All requirements like Api keys n job ID are mentioned. Could you please tell me what's wrong. ??!!!
