Hi Alok,<br>
<br>
the problem is not to start the testing process remotely. In my case
it's no problem simply setting up the Windows task planner to execute
some script every night. The problem is more, how do I tell ctest to
perform its tests without having to perform the complete build as well.
I would probably need to copy both the complete source as well as the
binary directory from the build to the test machines and then have a
ctest script execute only the test and submit steps. For the binary
directory to be usable this would either require the directories being
under the same path on all machines or to modify the files in the build
directory somehow, so the paths are correct with respect to the test
machine.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>

This is of interest to me as well. Please let me know what you find.<br>
<br>
Here are two ways I could find to start a task on a remote Windows
computer:<br>

I do not know if the return code from the executable will be passed
back by this utility.<br>
<br>

This seems to pass the return code back from the remote
executable. Requires a script<br>
to run however, so I would prefer #1 if it solves the issue.<br>
<br>
I wonder if there is a platform independent way of doing this.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
