Constructors

RetryAttribute(Int32)

Initializes a new instance of the RetryAttribute class with the given number of max retries.

Properties

BackoffType	Gets or sets the delay backoff type.
MaxRetryAttempts	Gets the number of retries that the test should make in case of failures. Note that before RetryAttribute is considered, the test was already executed once. This property determines the max number of retries after the first normal run.
MillisecondsDelayBetweenRetries	Gets or sets the delay, in milliseconds, between retries. This delay is also applied after the first run and before the first retry attempt.

Methods

ExecuteAsync(RetryContext)

Retries the test method. The details of how retry is done is left to the derived classes. Note that a first run of the method was already executed and failed before this method is called. (Inherited from RetryBaseAttribute)
