Is it Possible to run testcomplete created scripts without a gui interface

I want to know if it is possible to run the tests created in testcomplete on a headless system (no monitor attached) if yes , how? If no , is there any way by which we can create a virtual GUI interface for the same purpose .

    Hi,



    GUI doesn't depend on whether a monitor is attached to a PC or not. You can run tests there, for example, via RD.

    What i want to do is simply install testexecute on a server system and schedule it to run at a particular time without any remote desktop connection . Is it possible? Will the tests run if i dont have an active RDP session or any monitor attached to the system?

    Hi,



    As I said, nothing depends on the monitor. The machine where you want to run your test must be unlocked (or an RD session must be open on it). Otherwise, any GUI tests will fail.
