Hi @MounikaPearl this plugin is intended to work on *nix operating systems where test is a standard part of the system. You could try to set up on your Windows machine and make sure that it appears in the PATH, so it's resolvable as test from command line.

Hi @scream3 we have put the log file path (which we are trying to monitor) in the PATH variable.
We have also defined a variable "test" and its value is the log file path.
But we are still getting the same error.

@MounikaPearl test is a name of command line program (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Test_(Unix)) . It should NOT be defined as variable. This should be present as executable file on target computer and directory with it should appear in PATH.
