    It is possible to run a test item multiple times using Count column, In your case, you want to run n  times based on the last test item result.

    How will receive from last test item? Project Variable/ Global Variable?

     

    As of now, there is no possibility to run a test item based on any value expect the Count field with help of TestCompete infrastructure.

    But this can handle within scripts.

    The answer... is yes... but not based upon the test item.  What you will need to do is build the code that the test item refers to in order to have the loop by dynamic.  As mentioned, the "Count" property of the test item is read-only at runtime so you will need to write a "For" loop in your keyword test or script code to handle this dynamically lengthed loop.
