Re: testing TTCN3 test stability

I think this might be of interest to some of the other developers. Soemtimes we have a problem that the test suite itself is not 100% stable, and it's not easy to reproduce a test that fails sporadically every Nth time. As the "execute" statement in the "control" section actually returns a verdict type, you can use the following construct in a control section: control { for (var integer i := 0; i < 10000; i := i+1) { var verdicttype v; v := execute( TC_paging_ps_ptp_lac() ); if (v != pass) { break; } } } This way you keep running the test suite until the given test fails for the first time. Then go do something else for some hour(s) and by the time you get back, hopefully you will have reproduced the problem.
