Target Groups

testgrinder service will be discontinued on January 31, 2025

testgrinder SMPC was discontinued as of February 1, 2024

Load balances (created later) will route requests to the tg-app instances in target groups.

Each target group is responsible for handling a specific port. You will need to create 3 target groups for public traffic on ports 22, 80, 443. And one for private traffic on port 3000.

You can manage target groups on the Target Groups page in AWS EC2 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/ec2
