Make use of Reporter.Reportevent eg.

var=statement

if var="True" Then

Reporter.Reportevent 0,"Step Name","Description of the Passed step"

else

Reporter.Reportevent 1,"Step Name","Description for the failed step"

End If

I hope thats it :)

I have the same problem. However My issue deals with waiting for an object. I'm not a programmer. How can I manipulate the Wait function to wait without me having to specify the seconds. For instance in Rational Functional Tester I used to use wait.untilExistence.

For all of u who've added their comments to this questions i request u read the question once more very carefully.

It clearly demands that the script should not halt in between the execution if any error occurs. In this case the only solution is to use Optional Step statement. Using this statement QTP will reflect a Warning message in the Test Results Page and just continues running the next line of the script. Please refer QTP help for more information on this.

One option is to use 'On error resume next' and get the err.description

in the Reporter.reportEvent 4 Error if any err.description

Second option is to ask the Recovery manager to look err.description for every executed step and log them in a flat file.
