Basic error handling

[basanth27]

Hey Mark,

Very informative research. Yes, I understand your pain. I am working on Continous Integration the NextGen in Test Automation and the criteria for automation is to execute without a break. To Do that we need to have exemplary error handlers and I am not even Close :-)

However, I can share what I have learnt. I think one of the best usage of functions is to individually handle each action. Here is a crude way of how it could be done, I would encourage you to enhance and script it according to your needs.

Code:

Public Function oWebList_SelectVal(WebListObj, Val2)
RetVal = -1
On Error Resume Next
  ' you code here...
  .....
  .....
  If Err.Number <> 0 then
       Msgbox "Fail"    
       Exit Function
  End If
RetVal = 0
End Function

Public Function SelectDialog_WebList(Obj)
RetVal = -1
On Error Resume Next
If Obj.Exists And Obj.Enabled Then
    Call oWebList_SelectVal(Obj, Val2)
  Else
        'Log the error
End If
  If Err.Number <> 0 then
      '''Log Fail
       Exit Function
  End If
RetVal = 0

End Function

' ' ' On your main Code
Set WebListObj = Browser().Page().Weblist()
intRet = SelectDialog_WebList(WebListObj)
If intRet <> 0 Then
  ' ' ' Log Error
End if
