StepNameThe name of the step, as it appears in the test tree. Any text can be used.

The lr_checkpoint function validates the value of a parameter against a checkpoint value.

This function is supported only under the Windows operating system.

If the validation fails, the script aborts or continues, depending on the values of the StopOnValidationError argument and the Continue on Error runtime setting. The Continue on Error runtime setting takes precedence over the value of StopOnValidationError.

Operators are case-sensitive.

This function is not recorded. It can be added manually when enhancing the script.

Return Values

This function returns LR_PASS on success and LR_FAIL on failure.
