SequenceFilePostStepFailure

[t.vervecken]

Hi,

I want to show a messagepopup via the SequenceFilePostStepFailure if a step fails.

But sometimes I have a step that sometimes fails. In this case I put the step on looping (e.g Stop after 1 iterations pass or after a maximum of 3 iterations).

How can i check in the  SequenceFilePostStepFailure  if I have a step that loops? ( In this case I don`t want to show the message, only after the 3th time when the complete step fails)

Can you query the loop index (I think it's "RunState.LoopIndex") from within SequenceFilePostStepFailure and only exercise it on the ones you want?

Hi,

In the SequenceFilePostStepFailure the runstate.loopindex is always 0

So I cannot use this

I think I found a solution 🙂

Parameters.Step.LoopType !="NoLooping" --> Check if the step that failed is a 'looping' step

Locals.LoopWhileExpression = Parameters.Step.LoopWhileExpression, --> Save the LoopWhileExpression in a local variable

SearchAndReplace(Locals.LoopWhileExpression,"RunState" , "RunState.Caller.RunState") --> Replace Runstate with Runstate.caller.Runstate

Evaluate(Locals.LoopWhileExpression)  --> Check for the result of the loopwhileexpression.. If this is True it is not the last step in the loop
