Description
Centos 7
RobotFramework 3.1.2
python 2.7.5
ride 1.7.4b2
I have a simple test case as follows:
Pause test
Log Test
Comment Pause Execution
If the Pause execution keyword is not commented out, it behaves as expected, a window comes up and the test continues when I click OK.
When it is commented out as shown, the window box does not come up however the test is still paused. I can then hit Continue button on the Run tab and the test will end, however the Start icon is still greyed out and I can't start another test until I kill and restart ride. Hitting Stop does not help here.
