Having trouble running a batch file on a remote server to execute an automated Selenium test
On a remote server, there is a batch file named mybatch.bat that triggers a Selenium test. Below is the code snippet in a Powershell script on the same server:
$BatchFile = "mybatch.bat"
Start-Process -FilePath $BatchFile -Wait -Verb RunAs
Running this PowerShell script locally on the server works fine and initiates the Selenium test successfully. Now attempting to run the test from another machine using PowerShell remoting:
There is a PowerShell script on another server with the following segment of code:
$CMD = "D:\mybatch.bat"
$TargetSession = New-PSSession -ComputerName $FullComputerName -Credential $myCreds -ConfigurationName RemoteExecution
$command = "powershell.exe -File $CMD -Wait"
Invoke-Command -Session $TargetSession -ScriptBlock { $command }
Although the script connects to the remote machine and initializes a remote session without errors, it seems to time out before the Selenium test completes. Additionally, no files or logs are generated as expected.
Troubleshooting the code execution issues and echoing batch file outputs back to the local machine seem to be major concerns at this point.
