# Process monitor
|
|
Process monitor is Python 2 script, which can monitor tested process.
|
|
This means, it should be running on testing target.
|
|
You can find process monitor script in this folder both for Windows and Unix systems.
|
|
|
|
Process monitor works by communication via port 26002, so all nodes between tested and testing device needs to have open this port.
|
|
|
|
## What is it good for?
|
|
Well, process monitor is used for the following benefits:
|
|
- Restarting tested application after failure
|
|
- Checks before and after each test if process is still running
|
|
- Starting tested application when it dies cause of testing payload
|
|
- Generating dump file for each application crash
|
|
|
|

## How to tell WapiFuzz that we want to monitor process?
|
|
If you want to use process monitor, just add starting command for your tested service / process into WapiFuzz configuration file. Example configuration key should look like this:
|
|
`"startup_command": ["python", "C:\\server\\httpd.py"]`
|
|
|
|
WapiFuzz then automatically connect with running process monitor script on tested system and will use its features.
