3.24.2.1 Using a separate AUT Agent or the embedded AUT Agent
When using testexec, you have the choice between working with an AUT Agent that you start separately, or using an embedded AUT Agent that is started automatically by testexec.
If you want to use a separately started AUT Agent , then the AUT Agent must be started on the machine you are testing on. Enter the parameters for the server and port number to connect to this AUT Agent .
If you are working with Test Jobs , you must use a separately started AUT Agent , because you will require the AUT Agent to start the AUT via autrun.
If you want to have testexec start and connect to an embedded AUT Agent automatically, then you have two options:
You can leave out both the parameters for the server and the port number. This will result in an embedded AUT Agent being started on a dynamically chosen port.
You can leave out the server parameter, but still enter a port number. This will result in an embedded AUT Agent being started on the port you define.
