Run a command prompt line disconnecting a RDP session without stopping test execution (as admin)
Hi,
I am struggling finding a way to disconnect automatically an RDP session so the remote test computer does not lock its session and makes failing the test execution (white screens due lock session).
I looked closely at the article - Disconnecting From Remote Desktop While Running Automated Tests
https://support.smartbear.com/viewarticle/72794/
Through a batch file, it is possible to disconnect so with the following batch file
for /f "skip=1 tokens=3" %%s in ('query user %USERNAME%') do (
%windir%\System32\tscon.exe %%s /dest:console
)
Manually in a command prompt, as admin, the command works fine.
However, When it comes to run it through TC11 I do not manage to use this batch file whether it is
- a Keyword (cannot get started the command line prompt as administrator, whereas I set the TestedApp to Run as and TestComplete is run as admin) or
- or a vbscript. Here is my code
Sub SafeRDPDisconnection()
Dim WScriptObj, ExecOperation, ExCode, StdOut
Set WScriptObj = Sys.OleObject("WScript.Shell")
' disconnecting
Set ExecOperation = WScriptObj.Exec("cmd /c ""cd C:\my_project & disconnectRDPforTC.bat""")
' Get the operation's exit code
ExCode = ExecOperation.ExitCode
' Get the application's StdOut stream
Set StdOut = ExecOperation.StdOut
If ExCode = 0 Then
Call Log.Message("Connection succeeded", StdOut.ReadAll)
Else
Call Log.Error("Server is unavailable", StdOut.ReadAll)
End If
end Sub
It seems that the batch file is not run as admin.
Could you please shed some light? I believe that I am close to the solution.
In advance, thank you
Regards
Thomas
