Killing the windows process using QTP Script.

[nagaraj_kv]

I am creating word object and excel object in my script. After execution of script, windows process (winword.exe) will be showing in Task Manager.
After multiple execution of test cases, it keep on creating WINWORD.exe in task manager. After some time, script will not work.
After execution of every script, I can kill the process.

How to kill this Windows process (WINWORD.exe) using QTP script ?

Hi,

You can use killExcel() to kill the excel process before opening or after editing.

Very easy: SystemUtil.CloseProcessByName("WINWORD.exe")

* You may want to save your file before killing the process... good luck.

Hi,

You can use the below function. This will kill any process runing in task manager. All u need to do is to pass the Program name.

Code:

Public Function General_CloseProcess(strProgramName) Dim objshell Set objshell=CreateObject("WScript.Shell") objshell.Run "TASKKILL /F /IM "& strProgramName Set objshell=nothing End Function 'If want to close excel Call General_CloseProcess("Excel.EXE") 'Killing word Call General_CloseProcess("WINWORD.exe")
