Use a C# Application to run a Sequence File remotely on another computer with TestStand API

[tlkr01]

Hello everybody,

I have a C# application which loads different sequence files and executes them in a specific order. Now I have the idea to run the application on PC one and to run the tests on another computer. In case 1 on comupter 2, in case 2 on computer 3 and so on.

At the moment I run the sequence files with the Engine.NewExecution-Method. But I don't know how to prepare the sequence files programmatically to execute the sequence files on another computer.Is this possible?

In the Teststand IDE I only have to define a step as "Sequence call" and to change the Execution options into "Use Remote Computer" and to add the IP-Address like in the screenshot below.

And I have to know if I can run TestStand with the base deployment license on these computers for my case.

Thanks and Best Regards,

Thomas

IMHO you will need a Deployment License for each station, since there has to be a licensed engine running on each station to execute the sequence.
