                        Well, there are a couple of methods on the object returned by subprocess.Popen() which may be of use: Popen.terminate() and Popen.kill(), which send a SIGTERM and SIGKILL respectively.
                        
                        

                        
                        For example...
                        
                        

                        
                            import subprocess
                        
                            import time
                        
                            
                        
                            process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True)
                        
                            time.sleep(5)
                        
                            process.terminate()
                        
                        

                        
                        ...would terminate the process after five seconds.
                        
                        

                        
                        Or you can use os.kill() to send other signals, like SIGINT to simulate CTRL-C, with...
                        
                        

                        
                            import subprocess
                        
                            import time
                        
                            import os
                        
                            import signal
                        
                            
                        
                            process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True)
                        
                            time.sleep(5)
                        
                            os.kill(process.pid, signal.SIGINT)
                        
                        

                        
                        

                        
                

            

            

                

                    
                        Well, there are a couple of methods on the object returned by `subprocess.Popen()` which may be of use: [`Popen.terminate()`][1] and [`Popen.kill()`][2], which send a `SIGTERM` and `SIGKILL` respectively.
                        
                        

                        
                        For example...
                        
                        

                        
                            import subprocess
                        
                            import time
                        
                            
                        
                            process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True)
                        
                            time.sleep(5)
                        
                            process.terminate()
                        
                        

                        
                        ...would terminate the process after five seconds.
                        
                        

                        
                        Or you can use [`os.kill()`][3] to send other signals, like `SIGINT` to simulate CTRL-C, with...

                            import os
                        
                            import signal
                        
                        

                        
                            process = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=True)
