Testing Named Agents or any named Process

I was working on testing a named agent that was started by my application. In testing I had intermittent failures. I thought I would share how I was able to test the agent in a screencast.

I created a blog post out of this for anyone who would prefer a little writing. It isn’t a transcript of the screencast, but follows the code closely.

Thanks, @AstonJ, I’m not sure why. I also know that the audio and video don’t quite match up at one point. I’m just getting started using the editing software and it was tough. I’ll see if I can figure our how to make the audio come from both sides.
