1.i want to have a .sh script where it runs opening 2 applications one after another

2.i have 2 applications in
/applications/app1
/applications/app2

  1. want this script to launch app1 for 20 seconds and get killed and automatically run app2 for another 20 seconds and get killed
    . these applications are OpenGL applications.

  2. i have a demo tomorrow and i have to automate this by running the apps continously one after another
