Synopsis: Testing will do nothing if no exe is present

Description

Simply change the testing project so that it cannot generate the workbench binary (e.g. by adding an unknown external to your project). Then you can try to launch the execution of test, but it will simply wait indefinitely because we never check that the process was actually launched.

Unlike what is said in rev#77919, the crash I got was because of the missing binary, not because of the firewall.
