Hi Mark,
with a repeat count of 100000 I'm not surprised at all that you get an
OutOfMemoryError: I suppose that each of your entities contains a few
steps and as a consequence, this makes a huge amount of steps that need
to be kept in memory.
Nevertheless you say that you get an OOM only when a step fails. Does it
means that you've been able to let this run without OOM when not step
failed?
Marc.
PS: with the coming changes (yes I know, I talk about these changes
since too long) such huge suites should be possible without too high
memory consumption (supposing that no report is generated) as the steps
will be made available for garbage collection as soon as they have been
executed.

Hey Marc,
Here is the script code I am using. I am doing this in a use case file
which calls the modules you see here:
<repeat count="100000">
&createProperties;
&startPage;
&travelerLookupLogin;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepA;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepB;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepC;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepD;
&indicateNoMultipleTDY;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepE;
&createSingleAuthorizationStepF;
&createSingleAuthorizationSandP;
&storeDocumentName;
&skipTripSegment;
&skipTripSegment;
&skipTripSegment;
&tripSummary;
</repeat>
Now, if any of these steps fail, say for example the title on one of the
pages is one that is not expected or a button is not present, then I
receive a Java heap error. This hurts me because I am trying to use
this process to test for resource leakages on our server. Anyways, I
would rather see this fail, so that I can debug as usual than try to
clean up a Java heap error.
Thanks for your help,
Mark Levy

Hi Mark,
please keep such discussion on the mailing list.
Seems strange. Can you provide the script code?
Marc.

Hey Marc,
Thanks for getting back to me.
I understand the problem now. The problem is that if you have a step
that fails - for example if you try a <clickButton> step on a page
which does not have a button - the test will not fail when it is
nested in <repeat> tags. Instead, the heap error is thrown. This is
also true when I try to place a <verify> step before the <clickButton>
since if the <verifyTitle> step fails, a Java heap error is also
displayed.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark,
which build do you use? I've fixed a memory leak for a few weeks.
Marc.
