Under the 'Tools > Current Project Properties' menu,

click on 'Playback' in the left navigation

uncheck the 'Stop on Error' checkbox under the 'Runtime' section. 

 

Then it will display the error in Log and will move to next test item.

    Hi Shankar R,

     

    Thanks for your reply, but my question is how to move to next Data-Driven Loop item, if there any one step under Data-Driven Loop failure, i want to skip the rest steps and move to next Data-Driven Loop item.

     

    Thanks

      If you are using Script data-driven loop then you can use try catch to ignore the current iteration error like below,

       

      For example:

       

      function Main()
{
    Driver = DDT.ExcelDriver("../../TestBook.xlsx", "TestSheet", true)
    TestedApps.RunAll(); 
    orders = Aliases.Orders;
    mainForm = orders.MainForm;
    while(!Driver.EOF())
    {
      try
      {
      OpenForm();
      orderForm = orders.OrderForm;
      groupBox = orderForm.Group;
      PopulateForm();
      Checkpoint();
      CloseForm();
      }
     catch(ex)
     {
      Log.Error("Error in loop");
     }

      Driver.Next();
    }
    CloseApplication();
}

        I am not using Script data-driven loop, if there any method to resolve data-driven loop. By the way, because i just using python, can you change the Script to Python. Thanks a lot.
