It seems like perhaps using a persistent class and a transient class in combination would be an acceptable (perhaps even preferable) alternative to this. Apply test case "a", and raise persistent class "did_a" and transient class "testing_a" upon keeping that promise. If "did_a" or "testing_b" is set, don't do "a". If did_a is set but testing_a and testing_b are not set, do test case "b", lowering persistent class did_a and raising transient class testing_b upon completion. That should result in a toggle back and forth between the test cases for each given run of the test case generation, unless I'm not thinking clearly due to The Monday Morning effect. :) A truth table or similar would probably be helpful if you plan to extend that scenario to more than two states; it's enough to keep just the three classes straight. _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
