create a groovy script:

 

if(testRun < 3)

{

 

testRunner.gotoStepByName("StepName")

 

}

prashobkt thank you very much for your input. i was able to get this to work by using below code but now after i was able to get test case to rerun i am facing another issue to set status to Finished instead of Failed.

the rerun is passing but test case still showing failed in result. i am using testCaseResult.setStatus but it doesnt seem to work so far

 

 

for ( testCaseResult in runner.results ) {

              testCaseName = testCaseResult.getTestCase().name

              log.info testCaseName

 

              if ( testCaseResult.getStatus().toString() == 'FAILED' )

                             {

                                           log.info "$testCaseName has failed"

 

                                           for (i = 0; i <3; i++) {

 

                                                          testCaseResult.testCase.run(null, false)

                                           }

 

                             }

}

    I would suggest to use a custom property to store and write the test case result.

      could you please share some more details on how to do this.

      as per smartbear technical support, they say that there is no way to do this (below email is from them)

       

      Hi,

       

      Unfortunately, the testCase status is evaluated based on each step ran, so even if the step is passing later the status will be failed.

       

      We have a reported this issue number is SOAP-4820.

       

      Thanks

        Write a script to check the assertions and set a custom property to Pass/Fail.
