Remarks

This method is available for Web applications only if the Use special runtime object check box is selected in the TestedApps editor. Otherwise, the Run method is used.
Sometimes, your application may hang when you use the TestedApp.Run method. The issue is that to call the application process, this method uses the WaitForInputIdle method, which is part of Win32 API. When WaitForInputIdle hangs, TestComplete hangs as well. To avoid this, use the following workaround: create a batch file (.bat) that will call your application and add this file to the list of tested applications instead of your application.
To close the application under test, you can use the TestedApp.Close or TestedApp.Terminate method. To close any process in the system, call Process.Close or Process.Terminate.
