# Runners
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Runners turn a scenario plan into a live environment while keeping the plan
|
||
|
|
unchanged. Choose based on feedback speed, reproducibility, and fidelity. For
|
||
|
|
environment and operational considerations, see [Operations](operations.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
**Important:** All runners require `POL_PROOF_DEV_MODE=true` to avoid expensive Groth16 proof generation that causes timeouts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Local runner
|
||
|
|
- Launches node processes directly on the host.
|
||
|
|
- Fastest feedback loop and minimal orchestration overhead.
|
||
|
|
- Best for development-time iteration and debugging.
|
||
|
|
- **Can run in CI** for fast smoke tests.
|
||
|
|
- **Node control:** Not supported (chaos workloads not available)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Docker Compose runner
|
||
|
|
- Starts nodes in containers to provide a reproducible multi-node stack on a
|
||
|
|
single machine.
|
||
|
|
- Discovers service ports and wires observability for convenient inspection.
|
||
|
|
- Good balance between fidelity and ease of setup.
|
||
|
|
- **Recommended for CI pipelines** (isolated environment, reproducible).
|
||
|
|
- **Node control:** Supported (can restart nodes for chaos testing)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Kubernetes runner
|
||
|
|
- Deploys nodes onto a cluster for higher-fidelity, longer-running scenarios.
|
||
|
|
- Suits CI with cluster access or shared test environments where cluster behavior
|
||
|
|
and scheduling matter.
|
||
|
|
- **Node control:** Not supported yet (chaos workloads not available)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Common expectations
|
||
|
|
- All runners require at least one validator and, for transaction scenarios,
|
||
|
|
access to seeded wallets.
|
||
|
|
- Readiness probes gate workload start so traffic begins only after nodes are
|
||
|
|
reachable.
|
||
|
|
- Environment flags can relax timeouts or increase tracing when diagnostics are
|
||
|
|
needed.
