Hi, I'm testing a windows application on both Win XP and Vista. If the
test case fails, I want to kill the application, so that the next test
case can start again. The application I'm testing is very complex and
has too many windows and confirmation dialog boxes, so I can't cater
for every scenario of closing the application to return it back to the
Default Base State. Easier to just kill the application.
I'm using the command line "TASKKILL". It works, but after a while of killing the application I get:
"*** Error: Unable to start kill.bat. The system detected a possible attempt to compromise security..."
I
don't think it's a permissions issue, cos it works fine and then after
I have killed the application a few times, I get this error.
Can
anyone suggest another way of killing the application, or has access to
a kill executable file that will do the trick on Win XP and Vista?
