After All

Overview

The After All Component is used at the end of a test flow to ensure that all connected components have completed execution before proceeding. It collects and processes all incoming messages before sending them to the output.

Usage

This component is ideal for synchronizing multiple parallel branches in a workflow, ensuring all branches finish before continuing.

Input Ports

Port	Description
in	Receives messages from all connected components.

Output Ports

Port	Description
out	Sends messages after all connected components have completed execution.

Properties

Property	Type	Description
timeout	number	Maximum time (in seconds) to wait before timing out. Default is 180 seconds.

Processing Logic

1. Receives Messages: Captures messages from all connected components.

2. Tracks Completion: Checks if all expected messages have arrived.

3. Timeout Handling: If not all messages arrive within the specified time, it times out and reports missing components.

4. Sends Output: Once all messages are received (or upon timeout), sends the collected messages to the output port.

Notes

• Ensures Completion: Guarantees that all necessary components finish before execution proceeds.

• Timeout Protection: Prevents indefinite waiting by enforcing a timeout.

• Parallel Synchronization: Ideal for workflows with multiple parallel branches requiring synchronization.

This component is essential for orchestrating complex test flows where all processes must complete before continuing execution.
