When you specify a timeout value for a Wait On step, the Wait On step will wait for an asynchronous invocation to complete up to and including the amount of time specified in the timeout value. If the asynchronous invocation completes within the specified amount of time, the Wait On step will assign any response or exception variables specified for the asynchronous invocation. If the asynchronous invocation does not complete within the specified amount of time, an exception will be thrown and the test case will fail.

About this task

To specify a timeout value for a Wait On step:

Procedure

  1. In the test suite editor, click the Test Cases tab to open the Test Cases page.
  2. In the Test Cases area, select the Wait On step for which you want to specify a timeout value.
  3. In the Timeout (ms) field of the Detailed Properties area, select an input or output variable with an integer data type. If the test data table does not contain any input or output variable with an integer data type, you can create one by selecting New. Information about creating a new variable is found in the topic "Adding variables."
