This statement is used to compare the items at two container directed paths. You can test for equality or inequality. Both text fields may use any of the escape sequences described in Escape Sequences.
When running stepwise the statement is only executed once.
If you specify a result of Set, the action's test state will be set to true or false depending on the result of the test. If you specify a result of And, the action's test state will be set to false if the result of the test is false. If you specify result of Or, the action's test state will be set to true is the result of the test is true.
If the Stop action on error option is enabled, the action will be terminated with an error message in the case of an error. If not set, the action test state will be false and named variable Container Error will contain the error text.
You can choose to save the results of the test to a track variable for each active file. When setting a track variable, the Set, And, Or semantics are applied, therefore cumulative tests will be saved as expected. The result stored to a track variable will always be a 0 or 1.
Unless you are the results to a track variable, AND and OR tests may deem it unnecessary to actually run the test.
