how to stop a keyword test step
Hello All,
I am currently running TestCompelte 14.91.341.7 and all of my current scripts are keyword tests. Prior to some of the recent updates, I had the ability to basically add a "stop" or a "break' in my keyword test, with what looked like a solid red arrow (almost like a red play button). Simply by clicking in the far left of the testing steps in my script (in the column where the image icons are).
When running my test, when it got to that point it would stop and then I would be able to let it continue after I looked at whatever I needed. Right now when I try to do the same thing, I get a red circle, but when I run my script, it will not stop at the test step. It keeps going.
Was this function removed in some of the past updates? Or has it been moved or is there a new way to achieve this?
Thank you

That's a breakpoint

When it's just a red circle instead of a filled in circle, it may be that your debug options have been turned off. Check here:

Hi Marsha,
Thank you so much for the info! I didn't realize that Debugging was off and that was what was causing what I was seeing. I just turned it on and my break point is showing up and working exactly the way I remember.
Thanks again !
