I know we can start a tester when terminal starts when we indicate this in an .ini file. Is it possible to start tester using a command so that we can start and stop tester as needed. I do NOTwant to open new terminal for that purpose. Can any one help with that? Thanks,

The answer is probably "no".

Yes you actually can - using WMI( Windows) interface. If you have no idea what is that- then here is a link - http://www.wilsonmar.com/1wmiwbem.htm

And yes it works. I am doing that in one of my EAs.

Good Luck.
