Resuming testing after a destructive event

摘要

Technology is described for resuming testing operations after a destructive event occurs. A runner agent and tests may be executed on an operating system. A test state may be stored in a persistent storage location. Another operation may be setting a scheduled task to run on occurrence of a start event for a portion of the operating system. The scheduled task may be configured re-execute or re-launch the runner agent upon occurrence of the start event. In addition, the start event may be received for the portion of the operating system for which a destructive event occurred, and the runner agent that was affected by the destructive event may be re-started as directed by the scheduled task. The test state may be identified from the persistent storage location. Further, a portion of test code may be selected to execute based on the test state.
