Exception running keyword test when called from another test

The automated testing sratergy we are embarking on is to record/handcrank simple Keyword tests (Units scripts when enhanced logic is required), large tests result in a large number of called keywords...

I have now converted all the Keyword tests to Scripts (I am happier with scripts anyway!), I have raised a support ticket to ask this question more formally.

#00427087: "Tests work until one more Keyword test is called then Test stops with Exception."

I did look at Perfmon trace during the failed execution (Memory and CPU showed benine usage), The call stack showed 4 rows, so not eaxctly huge.

Hi,

What is the exception ?

You could surround your script with some "try/catch" or "try/except" blocks, and then get the exception message

  try
    your code here
  except
    Log.Message('an exception has been raised : ' + exceptionmessage);
  end;

    What happens if you move that failing test somewhere else in the list?  Does it always fail on that one test or does it always fail on whatever the last test is?
