When you run a project, TestComplete runs test items specified on its Test Items page. By default, if an error occurs, TestComplete will stop the entire project run right after the error message is posted to the test log. It will not execute any further test items (including the problematic item’s child items and iterations).
To change the default behavior and configure TestComplete to stop only the current test item and proceed with further test items:
