The TruDiagnostic sandbox environment enables integrators to perform a complete end-to-end test of the service—from order creation to results retrieval—without needing to ship physical samples or run actual lab processes. This simulation ensures integrators can validate their workflows and integrations confidently before moving to production.


Real-World Workflow

In a live production environment, the lifecycle of a TruDiagnostic order and sample follows these steps:

  1. 🛒 Order is created

    The integrator communicates which services they are purchasing.

  2. 📦 Sample collection kit is distributed

    Depending on configuration, TruD ships the kit or the integrator sources their own.

  3. 🧾 Registration is created

    The sample barcode is linked to a recipient, along with metadata such as date of collection and sex at birth.

  4. 📬 Sample is sent to the lab

    The physical sample arrives at the TruD lab for processing.

  5. 🧪 Sample is processed in the lab

    The lab determines which arrays to run based on purchased products and registration details.

  6. 💻 Results are uploaded

    Raw lab results are uploaded and linked to the correct registration.

  7. 📊 Further processing (if applicable)

    If additional analysis is required, results undergo further processing before being delivered.


Sandbox Workflow (Simulated)

In the sandbox, physical actions like shipping and processing are not performed. Instead, TruDiagnostic automates those steps via simulation:

This simulation bridges the asynchronous gap that exists in real-world workflows, giving integrators immediate access to end-to-end test data.
