Creating a Repeat Loop that uses a Loop Index Variable
Follow these steps to configure a Repeat Loop activity that uses a Loop Index variable.
1. Click and drag a Repeat Loop activity to the desired location in the test workflow.
2. Enter the number of times you want to repeat the loop in the Total Count box. You can enter a constant
value or select a variable.
3. Select an option from the Loop Index Variable list:
•
Create a
•
Select a variable previously created for the Repeat Loop. You can define a variable with the Type
of Number, Dimension is Count, and Unit of (count) for this purpose.

Example: Simple Repeat Loop
The following test procedure illustrates a simple Repeat Loop mechanism. The Repeat Loop repeats the
Calculate Variables and Wait subactivities five (5) times. The Calculate Variables activity calculates the
count value for the calculated variable LoopCount03, and updates a corresponding variable meter value
in a test-run display. This example test provides a way to check that the loops are repeating and the
variables are updating as expected.
