ipc_tests_status
Get the status of an IPC test run. Returns status (running/completed/failed/aborted), test results summary (total/passed/failed), duration, and commands per second. If run_id is not provided, returns status of the current or last run.
When to use ipc_tests_status
Use ipc_tests_status when you need to automate a browser task. It is part of Owl Browser's IPC Testing toolset and runs inside a self-hosted, source-level stealth engine, so every call inherits the same undetectable browser fingerprint as the rest of your automation — no separate anti-detect setup required.

}Frequently Asked Questions
What does ipc_tests_status do?
Get the status of an IPC test run. Returns status (running/completed/failed/aborted), test results summary (total/passed/failed), duration, and commands per second. If run_id is not provided, returns status of the current or last run. It belongs to Owl Browser's IPC Testing category and is available through the REST API, the Python SDK (browser.ipc_tests_status()), the Node.js SDK, and the MCP server.
What parameters does ipc_tests_status accept?
ipc_tests_status accepts 0 required parameters and 1 optional parameter. All parameters are sent as JSON in a POST request to /api/execute/ipc_tests_status.
Is ipc_tests_status detectable by anti-bot systems like Cloudflare or DataDome?
No. ipc_tests_status executes inside Owl Browser's Chromium engine, which applies fingerprint spoofing at the C++ source level rather than through JavaScript patches. Every tool call shares the same consistent, human-like fingerprint, so anti-bot systems such as Cloudflare, DataDome, and Akamai see an ordinary browser.

ipc_tests_runStart a new IPC test run to validate browser IPC communication. Supports multiple test modes: 'smoke' for quick validation (5 tests), 'full' for comprehensive testing (138+ methods), 'benchmark' for performance measurement, 'stress' for load testing, 'leak-check' for memory analysis, 'parallel' for concurrent context testing. Returns a run_id to track progress.
ipc_tests_abortAbort a running IPC test. Sends SIGTERM to the test process and waits for graceful shutdown. Use when a test is taking too long or needs to be cancelled.
ipc_tests_list_reportsList all available IPC test reports. Returns an array of report metadata including run_id, timestamp, mode, test counts, and duration. Reports are stored in the reports directory.
ipc_tests_get_reportGet a specific IPC test report by run_id. Returns JSON data, HTML dashboard, or raw log output depending on the format parameter. JSON includes detailed test results, latency stats, resource usage, and failure details. HTML is an interactive dashboard with charts. Log returns the test client's stdout/stderr output for debugging failures.
ipc_tests_delete_reportDelete an IPC test report by run_id. Removes JSON, HTML, and log files from disk. Use to clean up old test results.
ipc_tests_clean_allDelete all IPC test reports. Removes all JSON, HTML, and log files from the reports directory. Use to clean up all test history.
