Overtest Agent is a part of Overtest project that is used to run programs with some resource and feature limits set. It is powered by limtrac
- another project from Overtest galaxy, which aims to create a Rust and C-compatible library that gives access to all the previously mentioned features with a simple API.
ℹ️ Note that
Overtest Agent
can be useless thing when it's used without Overtest, just because it gives a friendlier JSON-in JSON-out command line interface to interact withlimtrac
. If you need to run CLI applications with resource limits enforcements, you should create a custom program using C or Rust withlimtrac
added as a dependency.
