Hi All,   I have two slice machines which is not having any monitor. I want to run my tests in these machines.    Is there any way without using remote desktop to connect to that slice?   Thank...

Hi Robert,

 

Thanks for the reply. 

 

I tried the steps mentioned in the article, but still i get the error as '[TestComplete] Test runner exit code: -10 (Unable to create a user session).'

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks,

I don't know vmware slice so I can't necessarily say why it doesn't work for you. The assumption of the article is that there IS some sort of "console" capabilities in your VM environment... that's what the redirect code does.  There are other articles involved in remote desktop stuff... go through and see what you can find.

Now... your error... that seems to indicate that you're running your tests using some sort of test management tool or CI tool like Jenkins?  What tool are you using?

    I am using Jenkins CI tool to trigger test in my slice machine. I will have to figure out if my slice machine is having console capabilities.

      Hi,

       

      How do you connect to your slice? If it's a Windows machine (otherwise you can't run TestComplete there) it should have both console and remote desktop.

        I use Remote Desktop Connection to connect to my slice machine (which is having Windows 10 OS).  I am able to run my tests in my slice successfully. I am not getting the error message '[TestComplete] Test runner exit code: -10 (Unable to create a user session).' 

         

        I followed the article Configuring Remote Computers and it helped me to resolve the problem.
