    Hi,

     

    So, as far as I understand, you worked with Command Prompt in your tests, and now you want to switch to PowerShell. If this is the case, I'm afraid there is no easy way to do it because technically you want to use a different tool now. So, to avoid changing the tests, you need to change both the TestedApp collection and the mapping criteria. Changing the mapping criteria shouldn't be a problem as you only need to change ProcessName for the process and WndCaption for the console window. But, since you're having issues with this task, I suggest that you contact our support team and describe the issue in detail to get it resolved.

hi

 

i know, there are many differences between Commandline and PowerShell. It works relative fine in the moment. my only problem is to connect with ftp. but i will have a look in the www in time.I think PowerShell is more confortable to handle and to learn :-) Many thanks
