I'm able to kick off IIS express to run my mvc 3 app with the following coffeescript line:
iisex = jake.createExec(['iisexpress /path:' + process.cwd() + ' /port:9090 /systray:false'], {printStdout: true})
#listening code here
iisex.run()
I then run some jasmine tests using
ex = jake.createExec(['phantomjs run_jasmine_test.coffee http://localhost:9090/app/applebees_testrunner.html'], {printStdout: true});
Test pass and now I want to kill IISExpress.
The problem is that now I have a long running process and the process wants me to 'press q' to stop the server. Is there a way to send a q to the running process so that the server will stop?
