I had a similar problem, not sure of the actual errors the initial
person was seeing, and solved it for the ones that I was getting by
doing something that maybe should not work but did. I put the
<dataDriven> outside the <webtest> as below. For the errors I was
getting, it allowed the tests to continue beyond the failures caught in
the <option> tags.
<dataDriven tableContainer="NoProxy_Domain_Pages.xls" >
<webtest name="Test Getting http://${URL}"; >
<config haltonerror='false' haltonfailure='false' >
<option name='ThrowExceptionOnScriptError' value='false'
/>
<option name='ThrowExceptionOnFailingStatusCode' value='false'
/>
</config>
<invoke url="http://${URL}"; description="http://${URL}"; />
<verifyTitle text="${TitleRegex}" regex='true' />
</webtest>
</dataDriven>
It would be nice to see more <option> attributes that would also ignore
other types of Exceptions.

If I correctly understand, you use dataDriven within a <webtest> and
want to accumulate the validation errors. This is not directly related
to dataDriver but this is a feature that is on my personal TODO list. I
can't promise when I find time for it.

makes sense for me and would be easy to implement. Please open an issue

I think that this is beyond the scope of a test tool... but I've already
done something similar for a client.

verifyText with regular expression?
Cheers,
