BIT 6 Randomly Stopping

[JohnDorian]

Maybe you have set the auto stop time to 1 hour, or to a particular number of cycles that corresponds to abut 50min of testing.

I have it set to 60 minutes and 70 depending on the PC. So it shouldn't stop.

But I think there's an issue in my code somewhere. For instance, the following log file is for a PC that is supposed to run for 30 minutes. Which it did, but it still popped up as if it failed.

So this one's on me. It sure is odd though =/

[JohnDorian]

Sometimes when I run the BIT, it will stop after running for 50 minutes to an hour. When I check the log file, it will either say, "No operations..." for every test or it will say "No errors."

The latter situation occurs most often and is quite puzzling. I can't figure out why it would stop but not have any errors messages.

Does anyone have any ideas or know of any common issues related to this?
