Closing multiple processes with same name
I am using this Python script to close a desktop process so TestComplete can proceed. It works fine with a single process of name "foo".
def close_foo():
# Obtains the foo process and closes it
p = None
p = Sys.WaitProcess("foo", 500)
if (p.Exists):
Log.Message("close_foo: Closing foobar")
p.Close()
else:
Log.Message("close_foo: foobar not running")
# Checks whether the process is closed
if (p.Exists):
# Terminates the process
p.Terminate()
Log.Message("close_foo: Terminated foobar")
However, the desktop application can behave badly and launch multiple instances of a process named "foo". How can I loop through existing processes until all are closed?
