Ensure Settings Compound Steps





Ensure Settings Compound Step

The Ensure Settings Compound Step confirms settings on the phone by specifying criteria such as call forwarding, preferred network type and APN configurations. The Ensure Settings Compound Step also creates a Temporary Property that contains the ensured input settings.

Note:

  • Certain steps are incompatible with each other. If Incompatible Step Details are used, the step will fail and an exception will be printed to the log.

  • If a Scenario includes multiple Ensure Settings Compound Steps, it is strongly recommended to add a wait for 15 seconds step after each Ensure Settings Compound Step to provide enough time for the step to finish. Otherwise, the step may fail.
