Clarity: Mostly clear
Activity status: Stale
Tech stack: python
Domain: operating-systems, testing-qa

Research direction

Start in the acceptance tests and trace how the dbbot executable path and startup script are resolved. Check that Windows uses dbbot.bat while other environments use dbbot, then run the acceptance test suite in the relevant environments to confirm the path and startup behavior work.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

In acceptance tests, the path to dbbot is resolved wrong. Also, this should point to correct startup script depending on the environment (dbbot.bat in Windows, dbbot everywhere else)
