Stopping test runs

You can stop a test run before it is complete. For example, you might detect serious problems in the run and not want to wait for it to finish. When stopping the test run, you can choose to save the results and the test log of the run.

About this task

If you do not require test results and logs, you can choose to abandon the test by clicking Running > Abandon Test Run

Procedure

  1. During a test run, click Running > Stop Test Run.
  2. In the Timeout field, type a number and select a time unit. If you are running HTTP tests and are interested in the results, consider selecting a duration that is long enough for a page to return.
  3. Optional: To collect the results and the test log until the time the test ran, select the Collect test results and history check box. Typically, the partially run report is useful for debugging specific issues. If you do not select the check box, the report is not generated.
  4. Optional: Clear the Execute Finally block check box to stop the execution of the test in the Finally block.
  5. Click Stop. The test stops after the timeout.
