Assertions - Documentation is a little light

[mvillion]

Can I get some more information about assertions?
The documentation is a little light in terms of what is tested (or how).
The example provided in the documentation does not really give all that much information.

For the failure conditions

• Continue - I assumed just moves on to the next step in the sequence
• Recover and continue - Run the recover sequence then on to the next sequence
• Abort and recover - ??
• Abort ??

I had previously asked about an abort for an if statement - to stop sequence execution. Is that the same as an abort?

Abort

I once used the abort assertions to use it like an exit function. This helped me to temporarily pause a watering sequence caused by heavy rain. I know this could have been solved better by using a lua sequence, but at this point I was not that far.

Since a the moment there is no if exit available. Like pointed out from your post too. (Can IF in a sequence exit the sequence)

I’m also interested in what the other types can be used for.

Edit: My example which was in use for the mentioned purpose:

Cool.

Please vote for an EXIT IF.

Rory has said if there is enough demand for it, they may include it in a build.

Can IF in a sequence exit the sequence

Vote here for IF then EXIT
