+## This workflow aims to run the Application Signals end-to-end tests as a canary to
+## test the artifacts for App Signals enablement. It will deploy a sample app and remote
+## service onto an EKS cluster, instrumented using an OTel Collector built through
+## OTel Collector Builder (OCB) and interacting with the OTLP endpoint for this use case.
+## Logs, metrics, and traces are all validated.
