that you specify. Select this option to specify your own custom SQABasic error

Analyzing Results in the Sqatrap.log File

If you select the Start Trap option and an error occurs during playback, Robot
appends the error data to the existing Sqatrap.log file in the Rational installation
directory or creates a new file if one does not exist. (To start with a clean Sqatrap.log
file, delete the old file.) This file provides information about the state of the
Windows session that was running.

NOTE: Before you start Trap, see Important Notes on page 9-17.
