IE won't open when running testcafe from CI - automated-tests

I'm trying to run testcafe from gitlab ci using gitlab-runner ssh and/or shell on windows.
All browsers are working fine, including edge, except for ie 11.
The test freeze on the windows 10 virtual machine.
If I run the tests directly from the virtual machine or ssh, everything is working fine.

A deployment error in Xamarin.Forms UWP when deploying from a PC to itself

When I just installed a Visual Studio 2017 and created my Xamarin.Forms application, it ran fine on my Windows 10 PC. However, I then installed some apps from Steam (which is the only thing I can think of that could change system settings). After that, when I try to create another Xamarin.Forms project, it does not deploy well to my machine and gives the following error:
DEP6200: Bootstrapping failed. Device cannot be found.
SmartDeviceException - Deployment failed because no
device was detected. Make sure a device is connected
and powered on. [0x80131500]
Strangely enough, my first app continues to build and run fine, even if I uninstall it from Windows and then deploy it again.
What could be the issue?
I have just noticed that Visual Studio makes ARM the default architecture. Changing it to "Any CPU" brought back the option to run the app on my machine.

After you install the SDK bundle. XDE emulators begin to setup themselves immediately consuming a large ram from your rig. It might have happened that you restarted your pc/laptop while the XDE was setting up.
So i would suggest you to Unistall and Reinstall again the SDK package with Update 3 to enjoy no problems. Also please note that you are running windows 8.1 pro or Enterprise/Embedded Industry pro edition.
You should have the Windows 8.
You should have a Hyper-V compatible computer.
You should enable and configure the Hyper-V. Look here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsphone/develop/jj863509(v=vs.105).aspx
If you use a laptop, development on the emulator will be a hell.
Try grant all permission level to all user for your virtual machines in this path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows Phone\v8.0\Emulation\Images
Only restart the device or the emulator and the deployment will success
You need to have Hyper-V installed using Control Panel|Programs & Features|Turn Windows Features On/Off.
If you installed Hyper-V AFTER Visual Studio 2013, you will need to repair Windows Phone x.x Emulators in Control Panel|Programs & Features.
Reboot.
The Emulator should appear in the Visual Studio Run/F5 button.
It will take several minutes to start the emulator on the first try. It will appear to hang. Wait at least 10min. You can use Hyper-V Manager to connect to the emulator directly and view progress.

How to test Windows application that communicates with a Unix machine

I wrote a windows desktop tool that is supposed to read / write files to a unix machine. The problem is that I don't have a unix machine to test it on.
Is there something I can install on my windows machine that will mimic a remote unix machine and let me test my application?
Installed VMWare player. In VMWare player installed Lubunto. Works perfectly.

TinyGet and stress testing

I am trying to use TinyGet t stress test an application. I am running the following command:
"C:\Program Files\IIS Resources\TinyGet\tinyget.exe" -srv:localhost -uri:/testwebsite/default.aspx -loop:10
It appears to work as there is no error message. However, the ASP.NET process does not appear. Should the ASP.NET process appear?
Is there any documentation for TinyGet.
Update 17/07/2012
Is anyone able to confirm that the thread flag (http://code.google.com/p/toolsdotnet/wiki/TinyGet) is referring to the number of worker threads, IO threads or both?
I installed the IIS toolkit on a Windows XP PC with IIS 5.1 (development PC). I have now installed it on a Windows 2003 server and it works as expected.

VS2010 and VS2008 together won't run properly

I have VS2008 and VS2010 installed on my machine. Both works fine when there is only one IDE is running i.e. Vs2010 works fine when there is no Vs2008 instance opened and vice versa.
When I run application from VS2008/2010 in debug mode I get below error message
Unable to connect to Asp.net development server.
Even doing iisreset doesn't solve this, I need to restart my machine and then work on only one IDE at a time. My development machine has win7 & IIS7.
The IDEs are probably trying to use the same port. Check the icons of the Development servers in the notification area to see what port each of them is using. This gives details about how to change it.
