Hi,

 

> Should we run tsconutility after setting up the window task scheduler or before setting up the window task scheduler ?

Not sure that I got the question... You won't be able to do anything on remote machine after execution of tscon because your remote session will be disconnected and switched to the local one.

 

> Tests are executed but getting the error due to the command window remain open 

Then this soungs like corrections to test code should be introduced to make it (test code) to handle this situation properly.

In order to avoid the command window issues. I created the batch file. and and always run it as administrator. I also Set TestExecute to run as an Admin as mentioned in the document 

https://support.smartbear.com/testexecute/docs/general-info/configuring/testing-under-admin-account.html

 

Now everything is running with administrative previleges 

Now I am getting back the same firefox error issues.

 

Thanks

    I am still getiing the errors

    Seem like we cannot have Window task scheduler to run the Testcomplete tests on Remote testexecute machines when the Testexecute machines get disconnected. Even though we have followed the instructions in Testcomplete docs. 

     

    We are running according to admin previleges.

    We still getting the same firefox errors

    Has any one got the luck in running the testExecute tests when remote desktop connection is closed . We are trying to our testexecute tests using window task scheduler trigger . We have created the batch file where we invoke the project as shown in the link https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/automating/command-line-and-exit-codes/exit-codes.html

     

    we have also create tscon utility batch file which is used to disconnect the remote desktop connection, as per testcomplete documentshttps://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/running/via-rdp/keeping-computer-unlocked.html'

     

    Even after running the tscon utility our tests are failing . 

    If  the Remote desktop window reamin open then running the tests using window task scheduler working fine. 

     

    Not sure how much is the accurate information in testcomplete documemnts . Look like either Smartbear is missing something or our environments . 

     

    We have tried to resolve the issues with the support team but they are unable to resolve the issue .  

     

    Please update 

     

    Thanks
