We are a software development company and I am testing virtualization to better our testing and QA processes. The problem I am having is some of our QA tests run through java. When QA uses remote desktop to access the virtual machines and starts the test, it runs fine until the window is minimized. When restored it picks up again.

Does anyone have any idea why this is happening?

my forte but it looks like the active window is losing focus when it is minimised. The only reason that I picked up on this is because I recently had a play with sendkeys. Somehow you will have to keep it active.

have to be in focus because I can move on to another project, window, etc... and it is fine. Just when it is minimized. If I use VNC, it works fine.

Oh well, what do you expect from buggy software.

obviously have different control with VNC. It may be one of those things that you have to workaround for the time being until you get to the source of the problem.
