Remarks

This method creates a new child context with a new nested TestStep, enters the child context, performs the action, then exits the child context.

This method may be called recursively to create nested steps or concurrently to create parallel steps.

This method verifies that the step produced the expected outcome. If a different outcome was obtained, then raises an assertion failure.

Exceptions

ExceptionCondition
System..::.ArgumentNullExceptionThrown if name or action is null.
System..::.ArgumentExceptionThrown if name is the empty string.
Gallio.Framework.Assertions..::.AssertionFailureExceptionThrown if the expected outcome was not obtained.
System..::.InvalidOperationExceptionThrown if there is no current test context.
