Re : Customizing Step Pass/Fail result

[RJ_15]

Hi,

In my script I am setting the result of the pass/fail step using a global.

After the sequence executes completely the result is always coming as 'Failed'.

I have checked the Global value after every step in the sequence and its 'True' always but still the sequence result is 'Failed'.

I am not able to figure out how this 'Fail' status is coming even after successful execution of sequence.

Suggestions are welcomed.

Can you post an example code plz?

[RJ_15]

Sorry I can't produce any example code because this problem is coming only in that particular script and I can't produce that code.

But after all the steps exceuted successfully, the final result of the sequence is failed. Thats my confusion. What can be the possilble reason for this.

It's gonna be hard to help you without the SequenceFile...

Do you have other step than Pass/Fail test? how do you change the step result? which method/Statement are you using?

[RJ_15]

See its not only an Pass/Fail steps' sequence.

I have many other steps also like Action steps, expressions, loops and all.

Secondly the step result I am deciding upon the execution result of the LV module.

I have created a File Global and that I am assigning to the Data Source of the Pass/Fail step.

" Step.Result.PassFail = FileGlobals.StepPassFail"

And this variable is accessed by number of steps in my sequence file (but these execution of steps is dependent upon user selection).

Ok,  I don't think this is the main issue, but I strongly suggest you to replace the fileglobal (use a local variable instead) Fileglobals have to acces files so it's not 100% reliable and it's not optimized.

Ok, thanks a ton for your suggestions.

The problem is solved and I guess the FileGlobal might have been causing the problem (though I haven't changed it yet).
