You don't need a script. You need dependant test. You may
- setup auxiliary test item (e.g. ping 127.0.0.1)
- select "This test depends on expression" option of the test
- use expression like "%FolderCurrent_BadTests% < 3" for "Perform test if" option
- set "OtherwiseStatus" option to Bad
- mark "Synchronize status&alerts" option

On the other hand... are you sure you need such item? May be you need just "advanced mode" action?
