Runner.stop method didn't stop current routine

[AbilAjay]

I have two routine test1() and test2(), i called test1() inside the test2(), like this
def test1():
Log.error("kaboom")

def test2():
test1():
Log.message("hello")
Play back on error property set to "stop current item"

If I run the test2 it's only stop test1 routine alone it's won't stop test2 it will print hello on the console how i stop the execution of routine test2 completely when there is error occurred? Please someone help me, i try onlog error event aslo it's won't work it's only stop one routine alone

See Project Properties - Playback Options. If the option for On error is set to Stop current item, then Log.Error() will cause TC to stop and not continue.

If we use try catch on test1():

it won't stop, please try that one

Hello message is printing

Read and understand Errors and Exceptions and Handling Exceptions in Scripts. 

You're handling the exception error using the try...except statement. There's nothing in your except statement to indicate that the automation should stop.

Thanks, rraghavani now understood, the difference between a test engine (Python Error) error and testcomplete error, Try catch did not handle testcomplete errors like object not found and method not suitable
