Reboot remote computer while running distibuted test

Hi
I have a project where I control several remote computers in a distributed test.

One of the first steps is to install software, then reboot the computers.
After this I want to continue running functional tests on the software I have installed.

I have found the method
aqEnvironment.RebootAndContinue()
But this only continues the tests locally, and the Master does not see the computers anymore.

How can I restart the remote computers and then continue running tests with distributed testing?

Yours

    Hi Bjørn,

     

    You need to investigate the Action after run option of your task. You can set it to Reboot computer – in this case, TestComplete will reboot the slave computer. Please read the Editing Task Properties ( http://smartbear.com/viewarticle/68430/ ) article for details.

     

    Is this that you were looking for?

      Hi Tanya.

       

      Thanks for your answer.

       

      It was so simple that it did not occure to me to look there.

      I was looking into some scripting objects to do it.

       

      (Explains why I did not find anybody else looking for this when googeling:smileyvery-happy:)
