Additional error handling functionality for unattended test runs

As originally discussed on the forums, it was suggested to submit a RFE. (https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/community/forums/html/topic?id=7c067db9-35f8-4936-8d86-c29d9848a9e8)

We are looking for a solution to automatically stop/exit the test when run via schedule if it reaches a certain level of failures. In Performance Requirement there is an option for this but no option to add an action if it falls below a threshold. Likewise in the Error Handling tab it does not show an option for test level, only iteration level actions.

One way to handle this could be to trigger an exit based on a net total of errors instead of percentage. Having a variety of parameters to choose from would give us the flexibility to design this exit based on specific status codes (e.g. unhealthy page count, 500s, VP failures, etc.). Also, selecting what time frame should be measured (e.g. full test, moving time frame), and what happens when the threshold is reached (e.g. exit test, exit/kill agent).

Currently, we would like to have an option to exit the test for unhealthy number of pages up to either a certain number of failures total or during a specific time frame.
We'd be happy to discuss/brainstorm ideas with your team.

    As part of the review process, we strive to be transparent about our intentions with each enhancement suggestion. The offering team has carefully reviewed this idea and has decided that it does not fit into our current plans, so the idea will be closed. The idea will be kept in IBM's ideas repository and may still be voted on. It might be reassessed or reopened for additional feedback in the future. We value your feedback and thank you for allowing us the privilege of partnering with you in developing our products.

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.

    We are interested in pursuing this capability and would like to engage with you for a design thinking session to ensure we fully implement what is required in a manner that is useful to yourselves and others.
