What about changing the playback to retry failed test items?
brumazz I considered that too, but some of our tests take more than 30 minutes and after that time when an application should be opened to verify something, the "re run" option would add another 30 minutes to the execution just because TC couldn't open an application.

I'm sorry, I may be confused, but this setting is not going to re-run the entire test....just the failed test step.
So, say you have 1 test step that that validates that the app is open.
Given you have changed that setting, it would retry the validation...not the entire test.
Also, have you tried doing any of this in a KeyWord Test?

Hi brumazz , I just checked again the stop and re run current item option based on your comments, and I can confirm it does not work as you said. It re-runs the entire test case again. Here you can see the result of running a test that fails in one step: the entire test is re-run after it fails.

My apologies...you are correct.....it does not work within a test, but rather the execution plan. (screenshot below)
Are you running your tests through the execution plan or just from the test level?
