how to run custom scripts after project suite Run is completed

Question

We have developed custom code in python to generate html based Summary report using the data available in the TestComplete provided Junit summary report xml file. At the end of execution i want to generate Junit summary report xml file and then I want to run this custom code.

I am not sure when and where i can trigger this custom code after all the test execution is completed? Also it should get triggered in both commandline and using Test complete GUI.

Any thoughts how to achieve this?

We use our build system (Jenkins) to accomplish something similar to what you’re describing. &nbsp;After execution of the TestComplete project finishes Jenkins runs a “teardown” build step that publishes our results and copies test artifacts to the network. &nbsp;The “teardown” step runs PowerShell scripts to make all that happen.

Use either PowerShell or Batch file to call the appropriate commands, https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/working-with/automating/command-line-and-exit-codes/command-line.html to run your automation scripts. You can then perform other actions once the automation has finished.
Also have a look at Events https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/reference/events/index.html to see if this may be able to help.

we have built the custom code using python within Testcomplete, so i am looking for some way to achieve it within Testcomplete. I also looked into all the Events, i dont think any suitable event for my need. both Onstop Test &amp; Onstop Testcase happens after each test/testcase. Since it is within Testcomplete, i cannot go for powershell or batch file
