Problem conclusion

• Previously, when you ran a functional test by using the Web UI
  method in the Edge browser, the browser closed after the test
  run was completed, although the close browser action was not
  listed in the script. This problem is fixed.
  Now, if the close browser action is not listed in the script,
  the browser continues to run after the test run completes and
  only the browser driver is closed in the background.
  
  The fix for this APAR is included in 10.5.2 release.
