Thanks for the updates .

 

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

May be i am not doing in correct manner.

 

I ran tscon utility from commandline as an admin option after setting up the window task scheduler. So after this I will be disconnected from remote desktop . Tests are executed but getting the error due to the command window remain open and Test Execute attempt to perform an action on a zero sized window.

    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.

    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
