You can run your projects with TestExecute (manually or by a batch file) on each remote machine and send an email to yourself with the logs.



You need to setup your remote desktop computers so that they don't log out when you close the remote desktop session.



If you want to run your test "over" the remote desktop window, please ignore this suggestion.
