External application to call a series of .ebs2 files?

[David McFarlane]

Frank,

This question has come up before (e.g., see 
http://www.pstnet.com/forum/Topic2485-12-1.aspx ), and I keep 
suggesting AutoIt 
(<http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3>http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3 
).  So far no one has reported back on this, and I never have time to 
try it myself.  Perhaps you could give that a try and let us all know 
how it works.

Other than that, you might try a good old DOS-style batch 
file.  Also, someone once suggested (sorry, I do not have the link) 
using links in a .pdf to guide the course of a battery of 
tests.  That would still require some manual interaction, but might 
help a little.

Please let us know what you find.
