how to stop assertions execution when first assertion is failed

Question

how to stop assertions execution when first assertion is failed&nbsp;
my scenario is like :&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Login request:&nbsp; i have added 3 assertions&nbsp;
if i get bad ressponse and my first assertion will fail as it was expecting 200 and other assertions also gets failed.
&nbsp;
here i want to tell that if first assertion is failed( status assertion) then stop verifying other assertions. how do i acheive this?
&nbsp;
the idea i have is write assertions in groovy script and add condition&nbsp; but this i can do in soap ui free version, is there a feature in ready api to acheive this?
&nbsp;
Regards
Bheem

Hey,
&nbsp;
You can do it with groovy as you said but the question is why would you want some assertions not to be checked?

well..&nbsp;
&nbsp;if you are not able to login then what would be the point of verifying other assertions and mark it as failed?
&nbsp;
if i get 200 status then only i want to verify other things otherwise it should stop right there

This is not how this is supposed to be used. Normally you would have a couple of assertions based on which you would decide if a test step is passed or failed.

What you are looking for are conditional assertions which I didn't see before and for which I don't really see a good use.

Indeed you can be sure that a test fails just after checking one assertion but how does it hurt if all are checked especially when they are all evaluated in a blink of an eye?

right.. i got your point&nbsp; but my client do not want to see more failure when the first assertion failed. so she is asking is there a method to stop it right after first assertion.

the only way i can think of is at testcase level where the groovy script step is in.&nbsp; From TestCase Options of the testcase (within 'basic' tab), tick the "Abort on Error" box which should stop the continuation of assertions maybe.
