Delay or pause in keyword tests

Can anyone tell me why testcomplete could be terminating an AUT while the playback is on a "Delay"?

The AUT technically is running in the partially in background and foreground. It has a data conversion protocol that runs bringing up the stored data up to the current version. But Windows periodically declares it 'Not Responding', and because of that TestComplete kills the 'Not Responding' AUT even though we are just waiting for the AUT to finish processing the data to the current version.

CPU percentage when the AUT is running this convert goes over 20 percent some times  on my AMD Athlon X3 450 (3.2 Ghz) running Windows 8.1 - 32 bit. With a lot of data being read and written over our local network.

    Hi Jeremy,

     


    TestComplete provides a special feature to diagnose application freezes. You can learn the details here.


    Try changing the Freeze Diagnostics project options - open the Properties page of the project editor and then choose Freeze Diagnostics on the list on the left of the page.
