    How are you initializing the variable i?  At that point in the while loop, it is checking that value first... if i is > or = to three, you'll never enter the loop.

     

    What I would do is the following:

    var i = 0;
while (i < 3) {
MyObjectName.Click();
i++;
}

Thanks Robert. My bad, I initialized the variable using == instead of =

It is now working.
