Is it possible to skip a request that failed within a collection when running?

Hey @adilzamattos

Welcome to the community! ⭐

It is possible to skip or jump over a particular request using `postman. setNextRequest("request_name")`, in a previous requests `Tests` tab.

It would have to run the request in order for it to know that it failed though - Is it the request that’s failing or the tests in the request?

Would you be able to expand your question to include more context and give an example of what you’re trying to do, please?

Thank you for trying to help me. @danny-dainton

I want to skip the request if it fails. And keep running the collection. Is there a possibility?

It would need to run for you to know that it fails so I’m not sure how you’re going to skip it before that point.

Are the tests failing on a particular request, under certain circumstances?

Might need to elaborate more or show an example of what you have so far.
