Retry Mechanism for Codeless Test Automation

Overview

Test Case Retries allow you to automatically re-run a failed test case for a defined number of attempts. Instead of marking a test as failed immediately, the system retries execution based on your configuration.

If the test passes in any retry attempt, it will be marked as successful.

When Are Retries Triggered?

The retry mechanism is applied in the following scenarios:

• When a test case does not start properly
• When a test case stops unexpectedly or crashes
• When a test case fails at any step during execution

In all these cases, the system will automatically re-run the test based on the configured retry count.

How to Enable Test Case Retries

Step 1: Log In

Log in to the TestGrid platform using your valid credentials.

Step 2: Open Project Configuration

• Navigate to your Test Automation Project
• Open Project Configuration
• Locate Retry Testcase Configuration

Step 3: Enable Retry Option

• Turn ON the Retry Test Case Configuration
• Set the number of retry attempts

✅ Recommendation: Set the retry count to 3 for optimal results.

After Test Execution

• Review the test execution logs
• Verify that retries were triggered as configured
• Confirm whether the test passed in any retry attempt

Benefits

• Reduces false test failures caused by temporary issues
• Improves test reliability and stability
• Minimizes manual re-execution of failed tests

Summary

Test Case Retries improve test execution reliability by automatically re-running failed tests. This ensures that temporary issues do not impact final test results and reduces manual effort in re-running tests.
