Hello,
I just downloaded progress test studio. Trying to do a POC on this. My objective is to be able to run our test suites in multiple browsers parallel .The Test list has 2 tests and I want to able to run both the test in Chrome and firefox in parallel. I read through your documentation, set up one Scheduling server (which is also an execution server and its my local machine). I have another machine in my VMWare which is the second execution server. I have a third machine in the same VmWare where I am kicking off my tests. I clicked on the status and both machines are Ready (Attached screenshot).
Now I go into Test Lists, Run Remotely select both machines to execute in Firefox. So seems like the test gets kicked off in one of my machines(this is my local machine), but nothing happens in my other executing machine . Also the test list report in my calendar is yellow and does not change to red or green. It seems like the tests are stuck but I don't know why its not able to kick off the test on one of the machine when its able to do in the other machine. Any help would be appreciated. This is one of the criteria I am evaluating the tool against and would like to know the result .
Thanks!

Thank you for the detailed description.
As of the details it seems the configuration is set correctly but there is something which prevents the communication between both machines. As you mentioned you are using VMWare machines I would like to kindly ask you to reconfigure the Execution client on the second machine (which hosts only the Execution) to use IP addresses instead of computer names. Please let me know if there will be any change in the behavior.
Next thing to verify is if there is a firewall or an AV software active on machines which could be preventing the seamless communication.
Then if none of the above changes the misbehavior I would like to kindly ask you to generate the log file for both machines during a remote run. Please clear the logs (if any) for both machines from the status view and ensure these are enabled, then schedule a test to be executed on the remote machine (the one which only hosts the Execution client), leave it for some time and then collect the log files from the same status view window. You could send these zipped via this thread.
Thanks in advance for your time and cooperation!
