About ARTEFACTS
What is ARTEFACTS?
ARTEFACTS is a cloud-based robotics development platform designed for Robotics and Robotics QA engineers. It enables Continuous Integration (CI), Continuous Testing, and simulation for robot software, helping teams spot problems early and reduce the need for physical robot validation. The platform integrates with ROS 2 projects and can work with any framework.
Problem it solves
Developing robot software is complex and often bottlenecked by limited physical hardware. ARTEFACTS helps eliminate this dependency by allowing tests to run in cloud simulation. This speeds up development cycles, reduces costs, and provides clearer insights into software regressions via detailed logs, metrics, charts, videos, and rosbags.
Who it is for
ARTEFACTS is built for robotics software engineers, QA engineers, and technical teams working in industries like robotic manipulation, agriculture, and space. It is ideal for teams using ROS 2 and GitHub that want to run automated tests in parallel and scale parameter variations without managing their own infrastructure. It is not designed for non-technical users or consumer robot enthusiasts.
Real use cases
Teams use ARTEFACTS to test RL policies on robots like the Unitree Go2 in Isaac Sim, integrate with CI pipelines via a GitHub Action, and display test health with a status badge in their README. It helps monitor development performance and supports rapid regression analysis for complex robot applications.
Key features
- Continuous Simulation & Testing — Setup simulation-based testing for robotics projects with libraries that integrate smoothly with ROS 2 and any framework.
- Automatic Test Logging — Everything is logged to support regression analysis and team discussions without manual tracking.
- Rich Test Output — Include metrics (e.g., tact time), charts of simulation state, videos, and rosbags to resolve issues faster.
- Scalable Cloud Runs — Run tests in parallel and explore many parameter variations without being tied to a developer machine.
- CI/CD Integration — Link your GitHub repository and run tests automatically from the command line or via the Artefacts Github Action.
- Status Badge — Display test health directly in your README with a live badge.
