Multiple Numeric Limit Test not returning step failure

[NancyfromGD]

I am calling a Multiple Numeric Limit Test which is checking limits on multiple measurements and the Pass or Fail for each limit is indicated properly in the report. I have selected "Step Failure Causes Sequence Failure" but do not get a sequence failure when one of the measurements fails the limit check. The Main Sequence is calling a sub-sequence which contains the multiple numeric limit test. I have attached a pared down version of my sequence.

Hi,

Sorry I can load your example as I am running TS 2014.

Your SequenceCall step in MainSequence, does this have the property 'Step Failure Causes Sequence Failure' enabled as well?

Yes it does have that selection checked.

One thing I have noticed is with TestStand 2016 when the "Step Failure Causes Sequence Failure" box is checked, the text is regular and nothing is indicated in the sequence settings column, but when the box is unchecked, the text goes to BOLD and the sequence settings now indicates "Step Failure Option". This is very confusing as to which one is enabled? Can you please confirm which one is enabling this option. I have tried both however, and the step still indicates a pass even though some of the numeric limit tests have failed.

The setting should be as seen below to cause Sequence to fail

Also you need to have the actual test steps set the same way as seen below

This info in combination with getting rid of a run-time error has solved the problem.
