Symptoms
Consider the following scenario:
-
You configure the cleanup script for a test agent in Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
-
You configure a time-out value for a test in the test settings (.testsettings) file.
-
You run the test.
-
A time-out occurs when the cleanup script runs, and the test agent cancels the cleanup operation.
In this scenario, the test agent stops running test jobs. Additionally, you receive the following error message:
(QTAgentService.exe, PID '<process id>', Thread '<thread id>') AgentService: Exception while calling QueueTests on agent object: System.InvalidOperationException: Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object.
Cause
This issue occurs because the test agent process (Qtagent.exe) remains in an invalid state.
