Ok, thanks for the explanation. I will comment this case out for now and continue with the next sample program tomorrow. Once I have done the bulk of the tests I will see how this can be integrated into the test workflow. Can only do this on the side so it make take some time still. And , if no

This is not going to work. You are using the rexx command to invoke the program, which spins off a new process to run the program. Syntax errors cannot be trapped across that boundary. If you invoke the program using the CALL instruction, this will probably work. However, then you are unable to use

Then show your failing test case method so we can see what you are doing wrong. Just saying "it doesn't work" gives us no information about what might be going wrong. For example, how are you invoking the program? Rick On Fri, Oct 19, 2018 at 3:42 PM P.O. Jonsson wrote: > I was unclear: I am wr

I was unclear: I am writing test cases for ALL sample programs, the intention is that they will go into the unit test framework later when I have done them all. I promised Erich to have a go at it. I have done 10 tests successfully so far, but for this one I could not get around the error. I ha
