Get Step Name

[airspan]

Hello,

I'm using TS 2014 and custom  OI GUI on C#. 

I've implemented  UIMsg_ModelState_TestingComplete  and successfully get status of my  <Stop On Fail>  test sequence by calling uiMsg.StringData.

In case the sequence is failed I'd like to display the name of the failed step. How can I do this?

Thanks

Where do you want to display it at?  In a popup?  Or just on a form control?  Or in the Status Bar?

You should work throught the Black UI example contained here.

I'm going to display it on the DataGridView form control

Hi airspan,

Have you had a chance to look through the example Norbert linked to?

I'm not well versed in C# but have you seen this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/479329/how-to-bind-a-liststring-to-a-datagridview-control

I think what you need to do is in the UI Message callback set your datagridview to a dataset that contains the name of the failed step.

To be a little more specific:

If you are dead set on using that UI message you referenced then you would get the ActiveXDataParam as the sequence context.  This will then give you access to the MainSequence result list.  You would need to recurse through that and look for the step that caused the failure.  Once you have that step or steps then you would create a List that can become the dataset for your DataViewGrid.

To add to jigg's reply with the dead set to this UI Message:

It is not sufficient to identify the first failing step. You have to verify that this step was causing the sequence to fail (step setting: Step Failure Causes Sequence Failure).

My problem is getting access to MainSequence result list. I didn't understand what exactly I have to do...

[~jiggawax~]

There are 2 ways to get access to the MainSequence result list.

ThisContext.Locals.ResultList[0].TS.SequenceCall.ResultList

OR

RunState.Sequence.Main["MainSequence Callback"].LastStepResult

Hope this helps,
