    Hi
    Need to uncheck "Stop on error" option in the project's settings

     

    select "Project" item in "Stop on error" combobox for all tests

     

    uncheck "Stop on error" option in the suite's settings

Thank you :) How do you get to the last screenshot ? 

 

Also, If I need to leave few test items out - Can I keep the test item under Stop On Error ?

1. Need to click on Project Suite

 

 

and select "Test Items" tab

 

2. If you select "Test Item" item in "Stop on error", other Test items in project will be executed.

    Got it. I just found out from my team that we still need to check "Stop On Error" in the last screenshot  :( so I guess the logic wont work. We may need to create a new separate project for this one.

      Thanks for your suggestions, IStaroverov,

       

      fazlook, just wonder why you cannot check this option. Do you think it will badly affect other tests inside this project?

        Hi Tanya,

        Yes, it will. I basically rely on Stop on Error event to do lots of other things to me & I cannot uncheck this option.
