    The alternative options are to build your own exception handling system, to deal with the appropriate exceptions that you throw - not so easy!

     

    If you have a project suite, with many projects and tests, I find using the project settings, continue running on error, works fine.

A test that fails, does not throw an exception. Unless you are throwing an error e.g.

throw new Error("Something went wrong");

 

If you want the test to continue after an error, then you need to change your project settings, see Project Properties - Playback Options

    Is there anything that would allow me to control this more granularly than at the project level? Or can that only be applied to everything?

     

    I'd like to continue to stop on error in most scenarios.
