Allow for retries of scenario steps

Closed this issue · 4 comments

It would be nice to be able to specify scenario steps to be retried at the scenario level and keep track of the failures. The current method I'm using uses a retry inside the called function but it's not apparent in the result set that there was a failure and a retry happened it just looks like a really long request.

Would you like to see retries somehow mentioned in a generated report? Because at the moment report format is limited to what gatling-highcharts component can produce.

However, it would be rather easy to implement the retry-count option for scenario step which will just retry failed request and increase the error (KO) count.

Yeah I would like to see the failure but I would like the scenario to try the step a couple more times before giving up and starting over.

Added this to Future milestone because it makes sense to do this after #26 is solved.

It is possibly to retry actions by using dynamic scenarios and step-fn. Closing this one for now.
