AppEvaluator RunEvaluator.ps1 not running multiple apps

garystrader — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 18:32:24 GMT

I found this powershell script which does everything we want to do for an initial test of a system. No documentation, but that's fine, I can read powershell. One of the parameters is -apps. The script supports passing in multiple app IDs, which should then loop through each one, but it doesn't. Using VS Code in debugging mode I found that multiple apps are getting parsed, loaded into array $apps, and then looped through and JSON created with multiple restart and run sections. Then it gets passed in TestScheduler.exe, but then disappears into a black hole, only the first app in the list is run.

We can call this utility once for each app ID, but it would be nice if this worked. I suspect the issue is in TestScheduler.exe.

I found the documentation, which is nice, but it still doesn't work with multiple apps.

What's the syntax that you're using? I am not seeing issues with this:

I am seeing two invocations of SDKExerciserConsole with the two app IDs passed to the PS1 file.

Well, I see that it's working for you. I am doing the following:

.\RunEvaluator.ps1 -apps 25c39fdd-69c9-4d12-bd9f-50bec6f2cb67,6adfc539-8ce0-4b0d-b52f-99339ec7e7e4 -server "bgl-gs-w540" -sdkExerciser "Jun2019"

I tried it both with and without double quotes around the app id list. I also ran it without -apps argument, it prompted me and I entered the two app ids, but it still only ran one. I debugged in VS Code, I watched it assign the app array, but it only ran through the first one as I watched it debugging.

Weird. Not a big deal because I will just call it separately for each id in a batch file or something.

Version deltas perhaps? What version of the Scalability Tools are you running?

Re: AppEvaluator RunEvaluator.ps1 not running multiple apps

garystrader — Mon, 04 Nov 2019 22:08:05 GMT

Possibly. I tried this both locally on my laptop and remote desktop into a customer server. I tried ST 2017 (5.2.0) against a Nov 2017 server, and the latest version 5.5.1 against a Sep 2019 server. I can't get any combination to work. So strange. Again, not a big deal, but I appreciate you following up.
