    Basically, a test passes if there are no Error messages (or no exceptions have been thrown). So if your test never calls Log.Error(), the test will pass.

    We use Log.Checkpoint() to create "Pass" log messages in our scripts.

     

    Essentially you will have to check each variable value. If it's not what you expect, log an error message. If it is what you expect, either do nothing or use Log.Checkpoint() to create informational messages with a green check mark.

     

    Note, Log.Checkpoint() doesn't explicitly mark a test as a pass. A test will pass if there are no Error messages.

So I have to check if the variables have the values in there.

If all of them have values. The test is passed.

If one of them does not have the value, the test is failed.

I don't know if property checkpoint can check different variables.

and I need to find the way to validate the test if it passes.
