step result

Hi,

I have a project with 5 steps.
In the third step i want to know if the result of the second step is pass or fail. do i have a way to know this?

Thanks,
shiran

Hi shiran,

There are a couple of options that I think you could pursue. The harder one is to use the API to query back into the system to determine the result of a particular step.

The other solution that I think you might like better is to add pass and fail chains to the second step. In those pass/fail projects, you could have them write a file or into a file whether the step was successful. Then in the third step, you could check for the existence of the file or contents of the file to determine whether step 2 was successful.

Thanks!
I used the Fail chain option and it helped me.
