Overview

  • This workload will showcase launching and interacting with multiple applications (built-in Windows applications), whilst keeping all of the applications launched. The workload will switch between the app that is in the "foreground" just as a real user would, but will keep several apps open concurrently, also just as a real user would.

  • Please read each of the commented-out portions of this script to see what it does and if there are lines that should be commented out or changed (variables, for example)

  • Developed with: Login Enterprise Scripting Toolset v4.4.9 | Built in Windows notepad, mspaint, calc, and wordpad | Winver Windows 10 Pro x64 20H2

This workload will perform the following interactions:

  1. Launch notepad.exe, mspaint.exe, calc.exe, and wordpad.exe; all with custom timer encapsulations.

  2. Bring notepad into focus and type to it, bring paint into focus and draw a spiral in it, bring calc into focus and perform a calculation in it, and bring WordPad into focus and type to it.

  3. The above steps will be formed again.

  4. Lastly, the apps will be closed.
