  1. 1. I would create one single batch file that calls all the projects
  2. 2. You can set windows task scheduler to let the running instance finish before firing off a new one
  3. 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.

      Hi guys,

       

      The next solution in my opinion is the 'Network Suite Core' option in your project. With this option you can create jobs, connect your remote mashines and even distribute your project code in remote machines.

       

      I suggest you to read this doc topics:

       

      https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/advanced/distributed/index.html

       

      https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/advanced/distributed/requirements.html

       

      https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/advanced/distributed/processing/running.html

       

      Also there is great online video on SmartBear Academy, click this link:

       

      https://smartbearacademy.learnupon.com/dashboard

       

      register -> and assain to first free training.

       

      In video there is a 'TestComplete 101, 201, and 301' watch 301.

       

      Hope this help you.
