Thanks for the updates.
As I am running on TestExecute machine , I am looking at the documentation and I see only Window task scheduler and from there it also point to bactch file.

Now the question is if we create batch file then where we can save the batch file ?
I am under the impression window task schduler will pick the batch file and run the batch according to the time specified in Task Scheduler.
You could save the batch file pretty much anywhere so long as the user that is running the task has access to the location.
Ok I got some sucess .
Here are few concerns
1. For different project Suites do we have to create different batch files - mean each batch files for each project
suite ?
2. If project suite contain multiple projects/TestItems in each projects then how do we know to set up the time
interval ?
3. Since TestExecute machine is on VM which can be accessed using Remote desktop then how task scheduler
works if
a) we miniize the Remote desktop window
b) we close the Remote desktop
c) how can we see the reuslt fo batch file
- 1. I would create one single batch file that calls all the projects
- 2. You can set windows task scheduler to let the running instance finish before firing off a new one
- 3. You can miminize but not close the RDP connection. There HAS to be an active user session for GUI tests to run. You can specify where to save logs from the command line and save then on a network share for example.
How will you include multiple projects in different suites in a single batch file ? do you hav sample or example ? I can only see the example of one project in Testcomplete documentation .
