Introduction

There are scenarios where you might need to stop a test execution. There are 3 ways to do that.

​
1. From the Results page

The easiest option is to click on the Stop Test button from the Results page. Deleting a test execution which is in progress will also stop it.

​
2. From inside the test

You can add a Stop Test step directly in your test. The Stop Test option is inside the Miscellaneous action. A good practice is to add that step inside an If Statement. For example, if you want to automatically stop a test at a certain point if you have more than 3 failed assertions, you can use a Variable Condition in your If Statement and check if the system variable $systemFailedCounter is greater than 3.
You can find more details about system variables in the Variables chapter.

​
3. With the Endtest API

You can stop a test execution with the Endtest API by using the stopTest action. The unique hash for that test execution must also be provided.
More details are available in the Endtest API chapter.
