Have a script assertion to achieve what you are looking for.

Thanks for the suggestion. I don't quite understand how that would solve the issue. The script assertion as the smart assertion would fail the first couple of attempts and than would succeed. In a bad case both approaches would fail identically and without the enabled "Fail Test Case if it has failed Test Steps" option the test case would end up as a 'pass'. 

Am I missing something?

    It is required to enable "Fail Test Case if it has failed Test Steps" in my suggestion.

    Sorry for not being clear earlier.
