Bad Idea: Call Subroutine in Failure

[buckleyc]

May I suggest a workaround?

If you keep a counter or if there is an internal counter for number of failures, you could use a script step to check the counter and if it is beyond the threshold, stop the build.

I agree with adding some sort of way to prevent this. It would be nice if there was an option of "Do not execute if number of failed steps exceeds x."
