Re: Consecutive test anomaly

In my initial post I explained my requirements. I have been trying to get a test to repeat 4 times before reporting a failure, but with the tests grouped into 2, wait 10 mins, 2, report failure. This only seems possible by setting multiple "repeat test" actions with specific "start af...

1. "Standard" mode action. You should enable "Start after 1 consecutive "Bad" result occur" and "Repeat until status changes" option. 2. "Advanced mode" action. Please use following expression: ('%SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN') Both of these settings cause...

You don't need advanced action for this. You may use standard action: - start when 1 consecutive bad result occurs - repeat 2 times The problem with the standard action is that "start when 1 consecutive bad" only matches 1 recurrence, not 2 or more. This stops me repeating the test if the...

"any number of bad results" in an expression would be: ('%SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN') and (%Recurrences%>=1)
If this statement is true, I want to repeat the test 2 times.

If I write the condition as an expression I cannot see how to run the "repeat test" action twice.

I actually wanted to start when any number of bad results and repeat x times. If I use advanced mode I can set bad results > 1, but how do I set repeat?

Then use "start when 1 bad result occurs", "repeat until status changes" options
Does status change mean any change? I thought it meant from good to bad or vice versa.

I have 2 actions specified, the first is check again, the second is send email. I want to test again if a failure occurs, then wait 10 minutes (the normal test schedule). If the 3rd test fails, I want to test again and then send the email. I can see now that I can add a second "check again"...

Consecutive test anomaly

I have been trying to get a test to repeat 4 times before reporting a failure, but with the tests grouped into 2, wait 10 mins, 2, report failure. I have found that the Repeat field test is litterral so a "repeat after 1 bad" does not repeat if the bad count is greater than 1. The same hol...

Is it possible to interact with the HostMon service from a Windows Terminal Service connection (not servername /console)?
