    You're not going wrong.

     

    TestExecute has no UI. (Other than what you see through right clicking it in the task bar - outside that it has no on-screen presence)

     

    It's a run only agent. You give it a pre-prepared test, it runs it. You can't alter the test itself except via passed in parameters if you call the agent that way.

Thanks for quick response Colin. Could you please tell me how I can manage to run individual test units or else run selected batch scripts using TE. I tried to open script unit in TE but it couldn't find executable file apart from .pjs extension.. which means it wants to run whole project which is not my requirement. Any other way I can manipulate execution?

    Sorry Colin. Excuse my last post. Just realised I can run TE from command line and can manipulate from there. :) Thanks anyway. I appreciate your help.

      Yep.

       

      Thats what I was meaning by how you call the agent. You can pass parameters in (such as which test to run) when you call it that way. Sounds like you're on the right track. :manhappy:
