The manual testing functionality is deprecated. Do not use it for creating new tests. It will be removed in a future TestComplete release. |
The Step Failure dialog is called when a tester clicks Fail in the Step Description dialog. The Step Failure dialog allows the tester to describe the details of the step failure.
![Step Failure Dialog](../../../../_images/testing-with/deprecated/manual/dialogs/step-failure-dialog.gif)
Use the text box in the dialog to specify the details of the step failure. Optionally, you can supply a desktop screenshot with the failure description, to do this enable the Take a screenshot checkbox. After you have described the step failure, use the buttons in the bottom of the dialog window to tell TestComplete what to do next. You can:
- Click Continue - The current step is skipped, and the next one is started. A message about the step being unfulfilled will be posted to the log.
If the project’s On error property is set to a value other than Continue running, or (if you run the test as a test item) the test item’s On error property is set to a value other than Continue running, clicking Continue will stop the test run anyway. - Click Try Again - TestComplete returns to the beginning of the current step. A message about the unsuccessful attempt will be posted to the log
- Click Stop - The test will be stopped. Clicking this button is equivalent to closing the dialog window.
