Synopsis: A way to stop all tests in AutoTest

Description
If you push "Debug all tests" in the AutoTest tool, there's no way to stop the process of debugging every test.  If you push stop debugging in ES, it continues with the next test.  Pushing the stop button on the AutoTest pane doesn't appear to do anything.  The only way to stop the tests is to kill ES and relaunch it.

This is indeed confusing, but it will have to wait until the debugger interface is improved in order to catch the button press event by the user. Currently the debugger just quits the application, which to the testing tool looks like the application died.

There is still a way to stop the whole execution. If you display the testing tool while debugging, there is a progress bar at the bottom right indicating the debugging progress of all tests. To the right there is a stop button which allows you to stop the execution for all tests.
