tl_step will drive the script into sections & inserts a status message in the last report for previous section.  In tl_step we can set whether the action is passed or failed.

Report_msg is used to write a message in the test results.

tl_step: this function is used to send reports to TestDirector directly.

if the result come 0 then pass 1 then fail.

Tl_step: Reports the status of checkpoint to test report from within a script   Ex: Tl_step (?step1?, status, description)

 

 

Report_msg (? error  ? & Val ? ?): Sends the information about test script execution to test report, it does not affect the status of test.

Report msg is similar to "message box" in VB it is used to just display the message that is associated with it,whereas tl_step is used to report the pass or fail status.

using the report_msg will not have any impact on the final result of the script but if we report a "Fail" message in tl_step the entire test will fail.
